“Thank you to Glastonbury for having me, for singing along when I needed it and for all the amazing messages afterwards,” the Grammy candidate started his message, which was published in white message on a black history. “It really does mean the world.”
“The fact that this probably won’t come as a surprise doesn’t make it any easier to write, but I’m very sorry to let you know I’m going to be taking a break from touring for the foreseeable future,” he proceeded. “I used to be able to enjoy every second of shows like this and I’d hoped 3 weeks away would sort me out. But the truth is I’m still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette’s and on Saturday it became obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order so that I can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come.”
The 26-year-old singer-songwriter took place to say sorry to followers that had actually intended to see him this year. “I need to feel well to perform at the standard you deserve,” he proceeded. “Playing for you every night is all I’ve ever dreamed of so this has been the most difficult decision of my life. I’ll be back as soon as I possibly can.”
Capaldi had actually been arranged to play programs in Europe, Australia, Asia as well as a lot more, with much of his shows offered out. Prior to his Glastonbury program, he had actually revealed on June 5 that he was canceling shows in Glasgow, Dublin, Norway as well as London to “rest and recover,” clarifying that “the last few months have been full on both mentally and physically.”

Months later on, in April, Capaldi stated in a meeting with the U.K.’s The Times that he had actually been having problem with managing his tics while executing, which there might come a day when he’d quit music because of it.
“My tic is getting quite bad on stage now,” he stated at the time. “I’m trying to get on top of that. If I can’t, I’m f–ked. It’s easier when I play guitar, but I hate playing guitar. I know, I’m a walking contradiction.”
Capaldi included: “But if it gets to a point where I’m doing irreparable damage to myself, I’ll quit. I hate hyperbole, but it is a very real possibility that I will have to pack music in.”
