Hotly-tipped New Yorker Lissy Trullie has cancelled tonight's (June 8) London gig at the ICA due to ill health.

A statement on behalf of the band says that Trullie's bassist Ian Fenger was hospitalised in Europe over the weekend (June 6-7), forcing the band to cancel the gig.

It outlined that the band cannot confirm whether they will play the rest of their UK dates, which are due to continue on Wednesday (June 10) at Leeds Cockpit 2, yet.

The statement read: "Ian is currently under observation in Hamburg and the remaining UK tour dates this week are obviously in the balance.

"As soon as we have more information there will be an announcement on the other shows, but the important thing is Ian's health, and we can only wish him a speedy recovery."

The band's scheduled remaining UK dates are as follows:

Leeds Cockpit 2 (June 10)
Glasgow King Tuts (11)
Manchester Ruby Lounge (12)
Brighton Freebutt (13)
