The overseas leg of the country star’s Jim Bob Tour was due to kick off Thursday in Denmark. No explanation was given
Hardy, the country music singer who mixes hard rock with Nashville country, has canceled the European dates of his current tour. The overseas leg of the Jim Bob Tour was slated to begin in Copenhagen, Denmark, on Thursday, June 19, and hit cities from London to Glasgow.
Hardy announced the cancellation in an Instagram post. “I have decided to cancel the European leg of the Jim Bob Tour. It wasn’t an easy decision but one I had to make for my band, crew and my family,” he wrote. “Please know that I love you all and I will be back as soon as I can.” No specific reason for the cancellation was given, but the message noted that refunds will be automatically issued, by point of purchase. (A rep for Hardy did not immediately respond to Rolling Stone’s request for comment.)
In 2023, Hardy canceled a pair of concerts and postponed a third, citing “serious anxiety” stemming from a 2022 bus accident.
The country songwriter, known for hits like “Truck Bed” and “Sold Out,” successfully completed the first leg of the North American run of his Jim Bob World Tour, featuring Stephen Wilson Jr. and Koe Wetzel, playing gigs in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Utah. His last concert was Saturday, June 14, at Country Fest in Ohio. According to his website, his next scheduled show is next month, when he’ll play Country Thunder Wisconsin on July 18.
Hardy released his most recent album, Quitt!!, last summer. He followed it up with his first live album, February’s Hardy (Live From Red Rocks), recorded last October at the scenic amphitheater in Morrison, Colorado.
