Due to 'exhaustion'

Lady Sovereign has cancelled some of her live shows due to exhaustion.

Gigs in Glasgow on April 10 and Birmingham on April 11 will be cancelled. However, shows at London, Bristol, Norwich and Manchester will not be affected.

Her management said: “Unfortunately Sovereign has to postpone her forthcoming shows at Glasgow King Tuts (April 10) and Birmingham’s Academy 2 (April 11).

“(She) is bitterly disappointed as both shows meant a lot to her, but she is suffering from intense exhaustion following 18 months of non-stop touring and promotion. I urge all ticket holders to be patient and understanding and wait for further news on the postponement.”

As previously reported the MC is set to play a gig in the middle of a go-kart track in Leeds on April 12 - this will go ahead as planned.
