Animal Collective canceled their upcoming European tour due to the new economic realities of being on the road
Mat Hayward / Contributorhas joined a growing list of artists such as Santigold and Disclosure who’ve scrapped tours amid rising costs, market saturation and the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The group has canceled its fall dates in the U.K. and Europe, which were scheduled to begin Nov. 2 in Ireland, after doing its best to push through “touring obstacles related to COVID and the economy.
“We were looking at an economic reality that simply doesn’t work and is not sustainable,” Animal Collective said. “We are choosing not to take the risk to our mental and physical health with the economic reality of what that tour would have been. We hope you understand and that you know we would not make a choice like this lightly.”
