Americana superstars The Avett Brothers have cancelled their New Orleans show, which was scheduled to take place tomorrow (March 30) at the Saenger Theatre. Evidently, singer and banjoist Scott Avett has come down with the flu.

According to a statement from the band, The Avett Brothers intend to reschedule their gig for a later date. Those who can’t attend the makeup show will be able to get refunds at the point of purchase. The statement reads:

It is with our sincerest apologies that I write to inform you of the following: Scott has the flu. We would love nothing more than to be in Louisiana and Texas over these next few days to play and sing with you, but he is down for the count. We know a lot of you have made great efforts to be at these shows, and we are truly sympathetic to any inconvenience this unfortunate change of plans causes you. We will do our very best to reschedule these performances and will give you further details as soon as we can. Please hold on to your tickets, as they will be honored for the new dates. If you are unable to attend the rescheduled shows, refunds will be issued at point of purchase. If you purchased through Songkick during our fan pre-sale, you will receive an email with further information.

Peace and love to you all, and thank you kindly for your time, consideration, and understanding…

See you soon.
