North Shields rock star Sam Fender, has today been forced to cancel a performance at a major European festival - after suffering a bout of Laryngitis.
The 28-year-old was set to take to the main stage of Budapest's Sziget Festival tonight, but organisers confirmed around lunchtime that changes had to be made to accommodate for the singer/songwriter's illness.
In a post made to Sziget's official Facebook page, staff wrote: "We are very sad to announce that unfortunately due to Laryngitis, Sam Fender won't be able to perform today at Sziget Festival. We wish you a speedy recovery!"
