US outfit Pinegrove have confirmed they will be continuing their hiatus following recent sexual misconduct allegations against its frontman and consequently have cancelled their Australian tour dates.

The indie/alt-country band were scheduled to arrive in late March for what would have been their first-ever shows in Australia.

The cancellation comes after singer Evan Stephens addressed allegations made against him in November, where he was accused of sexual coercion.

Refunds for Australian shows will be issued in the coming days.
