Shadow Child Cancels Australian Tour With Medical Issues

United Kingdom DJ and producer Shadow Child has cancelled his Australian tour dates, with the artist's management confirming he will not perform at tonight's Origin NYE festival in Perth.

In a statement the artist's management said the decision was due to a medical issue.

“Due to unforeseen medical circumstances Shadow Child has had to regrettably cancel this run of Australian dates,” they wrote. “We apologise to all fans and promoters for this but sadly nothing can be done at this time. A statement direct from the artist will be released shortly.”

In response to a disappointed fan who had expressed frustration on Facebook management added, “You would really not be [swearing at the artist] if you knew what he has been through. We are sorry for letting you down but if he could physically be there he would.”

The festival, which also features Wiz Khalifa and A$AP Rocky, has sold of general admission tickets.
