Daniel Seavey has been forced to postpone more tour dates, axing his performances in Australia and New Zealand as he continues to recover from ongoing vocal issues.
Seavey, whose global tour in support of debut album Second Wind launched in March, alerted fans to his troubles last month when he postponed the final six dates of his European run.
“My doctors made it clear that my vocal cords are completely unusable right now, and that any attempt at forcing them to work will result in permanent and irreversible damage,” he told fans on social media on May 13.
However, despite “taking the next few weeks to get to the bottom of these issues and resolve them” ahead of his shows in Australia and New Zealand, Seavey’s vocal issues have persisted, necessitating the postponement of these dates as well.
“Hey guys I got some pretty tough news yesterday,” Seavey wrote on social media over the weekend. “My doctor has ordered me to go on another 3 weeks of vocal rest to ensure that this problem completely resolves and never returns, which means I have to push back my shows in Australia a couple weeks.
“I am so beyond devastated by the outcome of all of this and am so terribly sorry to everyone I am letting down.”
Seavey’s Australian trek was scheduled to begin in Perth on Saturday (June 7), before visiting Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, and then venturing over to New Zealand for a single date in Auckland.
New dates have already been announced, with Seavey set to instead visit Auckland on Aug. 2, and Australian dates to occur in the following days. His European dates are currently in the works, with Seavey telling fans “My team and I are working as fast as we can to get those to you.”
Seavey rose to fame in 2015 after placing in the top nine of the 14th season of American Idol. He later served as a member of Why Don’t We, whose two studio albums both charted in the top ten of the Billboard 200.
Why Don’t We went on hiatus amidst a lengthy legal battle in 2022, and eventually disbanded officially in February 2025, with Seavey releasing his debut album on March 7.
