Stevie Nicks has been forced to postpone a series of upcoming tour dates after sustaining a shoulder fracture that requires time to heal.

The 76-year-old music icon took to Instagram to share the news directly with fans, confirming that concerts scheduled for August and September will be rescheduled.

‘Due to a recent injury resulting in a fractured shoulder that will require recovery time, Stevie Nicks’ scheduled concerts in August and September will be rescheduled,’ she wrote.

‘Please note that October dates will be unaffected.’

The Fleetwood Mac legend added that the tour is expected to resume on Wednesday, October 1 in Portland, Oregon.

‘Stevie looks forward to seeing everyone soon and apologizes to the fans for this inconvenience,’ the message concluded.

Fans who have already purchased tickets are advised to retain them, as they will be valid for the rescheduled shows. Specific details about new dates and venues will be made available at the original point of purchase.

Nicks had initially announced a nine-date tour across the US and Canada back in April, with performances slated for August and October.

Due to overwhelming demand, additional shows were later added, including a launch night at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on August 8, as well as stops in Hollywood, Florida and Detroit in September.

October was set to bring her to cities including Portland, Sacramento, Atlantic City, Charlotte, and Hartford.

The news comes after Nicks postponed her Glasgow gig at short notice after having minor surgery for a leg injury.

The Dreams singer was due to appear at the OVO Hydro earlier this month but organisers said she needs a ‘few days of recovery’ following a medical procedure.

The famously acrimonious former bandmates caused fans to ‘crash out’ with a matching pair of social media posts in June, and then the appearance of a mysterious billboard a few days later.

Many took to social media to speculate that the pair might finally be on speaking terms again after famously feuding for decades.

Then, they informed the world that a re-release of Buckingham Nicks – which they recorded before joining Fleetwood Mac – will be available September 19.

For now, fans will need to wait just a little longer to see the mystical frontwoman return to the stage.

The silver lining? Nicks plans to be back on the road this autumn.
