Fontaines D.C. have had to cancel two further shows due to frontman Grian Chatten’s vocal injury.The band had been due to kick off their North American tour yesterday (September 20) in Seattle, but pulled out of the opening show, with Chatten revealing he had “come down with some kind of flu” that was impacting his voice.Now, the Dublin group have confirmed that two further shows – in Portland’s Roseland Theater tonight (September 21) and in Vancouver’s Commodore Ballroom tomorrow (September 22) – have also been called off for the same reason.Despite the rest and medication, I can now not even speak without pain.
