Elvis Costello has cancelled his gig in Swansea on Monday at late notice due to a band member's illness. He confirmed the news on social media on Saturday evening, saying The Imposters drummer Pete Thomas had fallen ill.
It means those who forked out more than £50 for a ticket for the Swansea Arena gig will have to wait to see the multi-award-winning singer-songwriter, who hasn’t confirmed a rescheduled date. Elvis' planned visit to Swansea was part of his latest UK tour with band The Imposters, which kicked off in Brighton on June 5.
A statement on Elvis’ Facebook page reads: “Unfortunately, Elvis Costello and The Imposters have to announce the postponement of their dates in Portsmouth and Swansea as Pete Thomas is indisposed. We apologise to our friends in Pompey and Swansea and will look forward to seeing you all again when we can.
