It’s looking like I’m going to be OK for the rest of the shows, that’s really amazing news.”Sam Smith also apologised to fans who bought tickets to the cancelled shows in Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow. “I’m still so sorry for everyone who missed out on the show, these things are completely out of my control,” they wrote.“I’ll be doing everything I can to get back to you guys as soon as I can… I’ll keep you updated moving forward but thank you again.”The update comes days after Smith was forced to cancel their Manchester concert just four songs into the show.“During my third song, I noticed something wrong with my voice.

I prayed it was just my voice waking up for the show but into the fourth song I could feel something was really wrong,” they wrote following the show’s abrupt end.“I came off stage and have tried everything to get my voice back in gear but it won’t.

I am honestly heartbroken I couldn’t finish the show tonight for you all. I love you all. I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry x.”They would go on to axe their shows in Glasgow and Birmingham.
