Cody Johnson fans, hold on to your Stetson hats—there’s some unexpected news coming from the country star’s camp. Johnson has unfortunately had to cancel the remaining dates of his 2025 tour. What caused this sudden shake-up? A ruptured ear drum! Can you believe it? Just when he was gearing up to hit the stage again, a severe upper respiratory infection became the villain in his country music story.
Johnson took to social media to share the news and explain the situation. He’s set to undergo immediate surgery, and it’s going to take him several weeks to recover before he can even think about singing again. Talk about being sidelined at the peak of your game! With six tour dates still on his schedule, including performances in Pittsburgh and Birmingham, fans are left wondering when they’ll get to see him live next. Fingers crossed it’s sooner rather than later.
The talented singer-songwriter isn’t just about the tour; he’s also in the running for several prestigious Country Music Association Awards this year, which makes this health setback that much more heartbreaking. But hey, as Cody himself says, he’s got to prioritize healing, and we can’t blame him for that. While it’s tough to see our favorite artists take a break, it’s all about taking care of those vocal cords! So here’s hoping for a swift recovery so we can enjoy those tunes at the Stagecoach Festival next spring!
How do you feel about artists taking time off for health reasons? Is it worth the wait for a fully recovered performer?
