Chris Stapleton is under the weather, and his illness has forced him to cancel three upcoming concerts in Texas and Louisiana. He broke the news to his fans on Instagram and was flooded with comments.

I have bronchitis and laryngitis, and on doctor’s orders am on vocal rest through the weekend in order to heal. I’m grateful for your patience and understanding, and hope to see you all in November.” He included the rescheduled dates in his caption.
