Godspeed You! Black Emperor Postpone Remainder of U.S. Tour Due to Illness

Canadian post-rock collective Godspeed You! Black Emperor have announced the postponement of the remaining dates of their U.S. tour following illness within the camp.

The group’s label, Constellation Records, confirmed the news on social media on Sunday (Nov. 17), confirming that information regarding rescheduled dates will be forthcoming. The label also made a point to assuage fans’ fears, concluding with the phrase “Everything will be okay”.

The affected shows include scheduled dates in Saxapahaw, NC; Washington, D.C.; Brooklyn, NY; Norwalk, CT; Boston, MA; and Philadelphia, PA from Nov. 17 to Nov. 24 inclusive. Currently, the band’s tour is set to recommence on Nov. 25 with a show in their hometown of Montréal.

News of the postponement comes just days after the band were forced to cancel dates Nashville, TN; Knoxville, TN; and Atlanta, GA due to a “band health situation”.

The group did return to the stage on Saturday (Nov. 16) with a show in Charleston, SC, though fan reviews indicated the band played a somewhat truncated set. A statement from Constellation Records indicates the canceled dates will hopefully be rescheduled for 2025.
