Neil Young & Crazy Horse have cancelled their upcoming four-city North American tour due to an injury to guitarist Frank "Poncho" Sampedro's hand.

"[His] doctor has indicated that Sampedro's hand requires additional time to heal properly," said the group in a press release. "We are sorry for any inconvenience this causes to our fans or the festivals where we were scheduled to appear. As you must be, we too are disappointed at this unfortunate turn of events."

The band canceled the final seven dates of their summer European tour earlier this month due to the injury, which a source close to the Young camp recently told Rolling Stone is “a mild fracture."

Neil Young & Crazy Horse tour dates that have been cancelled are as follows:

8/31 – Dundas, ON – Greenbelt Harvest Picnic
9/02 – Port Chester, NY – Capitol Theatre
9/04 – Ottawa, ON – Ottawa Folk Festival
9/07 – Arrington, VA – Interlocken Music Festival

Neil and the band are scheduled to perform at Farm Aid next month and the annual Bridge School Benefit in October.
