American musician and record producer, Lindsey Buckingham had a heart attack in 2019. He underwent a triple-bypass surgery “that required the insertion of a breathing tube that damaged his vocal cords.”
This caused him to cancel his Europe tour that year.
“Due to ongoing health issues, Lindsey Buckingham is regrettably having to cancel the remaining shows on his current European tour. Refunds will be available from the point of purchase. Lindsey sends his deepest apologies to all his fans who were planning to attend and hopes to return to Europe in the future,” a statement from his management read.
It was also reported that the health issues might be related to COVID-19 as some of the members of the touring party contracted the disease during the time of the event. The musician lost his voice briefly after the attack as he couldn’t speak or raise his voice above a hoarse whisper. This was because someone had been a little rough with his breathing tube.
