Sam Smith cancels shows due to vocal cord injury and offers refunds

Sam Smith has cancelled upcoming concerts in Birmingham and Glasgow on doctors' advice, after having to stop Manchester gig just four songs in due to "a vocal cord injury".

A spokesperson said on Instagram that medics recommended a "complete vocal rest".

The singer said refunds are available.

The singer, who uses them/they pronouns, had to cut short Wednesday's gig at the AO Arena in Manchester, after having started promisingly with a performance of the hit Unholy, just hours after teasing a show "surprise" on social media.

But fans were soon left bewildered when the venue went dark, the concert ground to a halt and the star left the stage.

The crowd was then informed Smith was facing "vocal issues".
