Charles Bradley diagnosed with stomach cancer
Charles Bradley recently cancelled some tour dates including The Beatyard in Dublin due to health concerns.
It turns out the 67 year-old souls singer has a cancerous tumour in his stomach. Upcoming tour dates will be cancelled, as he needs to take time off for treatment and recovery.
“In the past few months, I have had to cancel a number of shows due to illness, taking me away from my beautiful fans.
My doctors recently discovered a cancerous tumor in my stomach. I’m getting the best medical care and we are all extremely optimistic. I will fight through this like I’ve fought through the many other obstacles in my life.
My upcoming tour dates will be postponed so I can concentrate on healing.
Thank you all for understanding. Music is how I share my love with the world, and the love that my fans have given back brings me so much joy. I look forward to seeing your gorgeous faces soon, and to continue to share my love through music.”
Get well soon Charles.
