Having recently played London’s Barbican Centre over the weekend, Youth Lagoon has today announced his decision to pull the rest of his current European tour following the death of a friend.

The Idaho musician had been scheduled to make three more appearances at the tail end of the month, now confirming that they’ll no longer take place in a statement released online.

The statement reads:

“I am so sorry to announce the upcoming shows in Oslo, Emmaboda, Brighton & Secret Garden Party will have to be cancelled. I recently lost one of my closest friends and I need to be home with family and friends to celebrate his life. I apologize to all who had purchased tickets, and I’ll see you all again soon. I love you all.“

Youth Lagoon recently released new album Wondrous Bughouse on Fat Possum.
