Beach Boys founder Brian Wilson has cancelled his upcoming UK tour and says that he will return in 2016 for one final tour.
Wilson cites the success of the movie ‘Love and Mercy’ as to why he has decided to stay in the USA but has confirmed a return to Europe next year for the last time.
The official statement about the postponed tour reads “Due to the overwhelming success of Brian Wilson’s movie ‘Love and Mercy’ which has opened in the US to critical acclaim, Brian has had to postpone his current UK tour planned for September 2015 due to commitments in the US. He will be back in the UK and Europe in 2016 with a string of concerts to mark the 50th Anniversary of his seminal album ‘Pet Sounds’, which will be his final European tour. Brian says ‘I’m sorry I won’t be able to make these shows this year, but I look forward to seeing all my fans in 2016 to help me celebrate 50 years of ‘Pet Sounds’. This will be my final European tour. I hope you all enjoy my movie when it opens in the UK on July 10th, I’ll see you all soon, Best Brian.’
Tickets holders are advised to get refunds for the 2015 shows from their point of purchase.
Refunds for tickets bought through The Ticket Factory will be automatically applied to the purchasing card within 28 days.
