Buckcherry Cancel Upcoming Shows After 2 Members Test Positive for COVID-19
Buckcherry have canceled around two weeks' worth of concerts on the current North American tour behind their new album Hellbound after two band members tested positive for COVID-19.
The canceled shows, which Buckcherry aim to make up when possible, were due to take place in and around the Midwestern United States from July 16–July 25. According to a statement from the Josh Todd-led rock outfit, the tour will resume on July 30 in Columbus, Ohio.
Down toward the bottom of this post, see the list of affected dates as well as the remaining shows scheduled to take the act around the U.S. and Canada through the end of the year.
"We just discovered that two of our band members have tested positive for COVID-19," Buckcherry revealed on Wednesday (July 14). "Out of an abundance of caution and for the safety of all involved, we will be canceling all shows until July 30th in Columbus to allow them to recover and to quarantine."
The group continued, "While we know this is a disappointment, please know that the safety of our fans is of the utmost importance to us, and we will use every effort to reschedule the nine shows prior to that date. We greatly apologize for the inconvenience."
Without identifying the afflicted band members, Buckcherry offered an update on July 15. "The two guys who tested positive for COVID are doing well," they said. "Currently experiencing only mild symptoms and, because they were vaccinated, we do not expect them to get worse. And while the rest of the band/crew are also all vaccinated, we are taking all the necessary precautions to ensure safety for everyone involved."
Amid the pandemic and before tours had resumed, singer Todd became a certified phlebotomist and assisted in the ongoing vaccine campaign. Get more info on Buckcherry concerts here.
