Benson Boone has cancelled his Birmingham, England concert about an hour before it was scheduled to start. In a statement posted on his Instagram account, the US singer-songwriter apologised to fans and said he would not be able to perform due to illness. "Birmingham, I am so so sorry, but I will not be able to perform tonight. "I have tried everything I can to revive my voice, but I cannot give you the show I'd like to be able to give you with the condition of my throat right now. I am working with my team to find a date to reschedule as soon as possible." The Beautiful Things singer added, "This is genuinely the crappiest feeling. I am so sorry. I promise you I will do everything in my power to make it up to you. I'll update you guys as soon as I can. "Thank you for everything you do. I love you guys so much. B." In a statement, the venue, Utilita Arena, confirmed that the show had been cancelled. "We understand how disappointing this is and sincerely apologise for the extremely short notice and inconvenience caused," a statement read, noting that management is "working through all possible options to reschedule". Boone was set to perform as part of his American Heart Tour. He is yet to confirm if he will perform his next three dates in London starting on Monday, which are due to bring the UK leg of his tour to a close.
