Ray Davies of The Kinks has had to cancel his upcoming US tour due to an undisclosed “medical condition.”

A statement was issues on Davies’ behalf:

"Ray Davies' U.S tour dates have been cancelled. Ray, personally, did not want to cancel this tour but was ordered by his doctors not to fly or travel until his medical condition has stabilized to their satisfaction.”

“At this moment, his doctors could not provide a time frame as to when he could travel to the U.S. and advised him to cancel the dates listed below."

"Ray Davies would like to thank all his fans for their continued support and asks that everyone respect his privacy so he can concentrate on a swift recovery."
