Wilson said in a statement Tuesday that she underwent a surgery to remove a cancerous growth and is recovering steadily but that her doctors urged her to undergo preventive chemotherapy and take time off from performing “in order to fully recover.” “To the ticket buyers, I really do wish we could do these gigs. Please know that I absolutely plan to be back on stage in 2025,” Wilson said in the statement.
More than 50 shows at stadium and arena venues in dozens of cities across the U.S. and Canada were impacted by the postponement. Select shows were set to include performances from Def Leppard and Journey, and Heart has not announced whether those bands will accompany them at the rescheduled performances.
The band, led by Wilson and her sister Nancy Wilson on the guitar, canceled the European leg of their tour in May, citing that the singer had to have"a time-sensitive but routine procedure for which the minimum recovery time is six weeks.” Wilson posted on Instagram at the time of the European shows' cancellation, writing, “I’m okay! Please don’t worry. I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. It’s certainly an inconvenience for me.”
The Wilson sisters, who made hits like “Magic Man,” “Crazy on You” and “Alone,” formed the band in 1973. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers were honored with a lifetime achievement award from the Recording Academy in 2023.
