Sorry Folks, No Image Is Here.

A bit of awful news today as Huey Lewis and the News have announced that the band has canceled all future shows. Huey Lewis announced he has lost the majority of his hearing and can’t hear the music well enough to sing anymore. Hopefully he finds a way back on the stage at some point, if he can.

From the band’s Facebook page:

Two and a half months ago, just before a show in Dallas, I lost most of my hearing. Although I can still hear a little, one on one, and on the phone, I can’t hear music well enough to sing. The lower frequencies distort violently making it impossible to find pitch. I’ve been to the House Ear Institute, the Stanford Ear Institute, and the Mayo Clinic, hoping to find an answer. The doctors believe I have Meniere’s disease and have agreed that I can’t perform until I improve. Therefore the only prudent thing to do is to cancel all future shows. Needless to say, I feel horrible about this, and wish to sincerely apologize to all the fans who’ve already bought tickets and were planning to come see us. I’m going to concentrate on getting better, and hope that one day soon I’ll be able to perform again.

Sincerely Huey
