Julien Baker cancels 'Send a Prayer My Way' tour with Torres to focus on her health

Julien Baker and Torres announced the cancellation of the remainder of their tour in support of new album 'Send a Prayer My Way' on Sunday.

“Due to recent events, Julien Baker is prioritizing her well-being and taking time to focus on her health,” read a statement posted on Baker’s Instagram. “Therefore, the Julien Baker & Torres ‘Send A Prayer My Way’ Tour has been canceled. This decision was not made lightly, and we understand the disappointment this may cause for fans. We deeply appreciate your understanding.”

The two started the tour on April 23 in Richmond and was scheduled to run through September 13. Additionally, they had booked gigs at festivals like Utah’s Kilby Block Party, Oregon’s Pickathon, the Newport Folk Festival, San Francisco’s Outside Lands, Milwaukee’s Summerfest, and Louisville’s Bourbon and Beyond Fest.

On May 1, Baker and Torres had a full-house at New Orleans’ Tipitinas, and were next scheduled to perform Sunday night in San Antonio before the trek was nixed.

Baker, however, did not mention what the "recent events" that led to the tour’s cancelation were. Only three days ago on Instagram, Baker shared a performance video with the caption, “Getting to play these songs for y’all has been unbelievably fun… Keep an eye out for more tour news soon.”

Baker’s Instagram post annoucing the cancellation added, “Refunds and ticketing information will be provided by the original point of purchase. Thank you for your continued support and compassion."
