The pop-punk band unveiled the news of their surprise gig just five days ago, and went on to play an intimate pub gig in Covent Garden yesterday. However, the band took to social media to explain that they wouldn’t be making an appearance at Electric Ballroom tonight.

“London, unfortunately tonight’s show has been canceled due to an unexpected illness,” the band wrote on X/Twitter. “We’re truly bummed about this and apologize for any inconvenience caused.

“Ticket refunds will be processed automatically next week. We’ll see you back again on The Saviors Tour if not sooner.”
