Sleater Kinney have been forced to cancel their whole European tour after guitarist Carrie Brownstein became ill.
The band posted a statement on their official website breaking the news to fans, they were due to start the tour in Brighton on November 8.
The statement reads: "Sleater Kinney regretfully must cancel their November European dates on account of medical issues. Guitarist/Singer Carrie Brownstein has suffered two severe allergic reactions within the past four months, both resulting in trips to the emergency room.”
It goes on to say: “Her doctor has advised that she not travel/tour for prolonged periods of time until the condition stabilizes and further tests are conducted. The band apologizes to all the people that this cancellation affects.”
They hope to reschedule the dates for Spring 2006.
