Keane pull out of festival date

Keane have pulled out of their slot at the T On The Fringe festival, due to exhaustion.

Lead singer Tom Chaplin is suffering from an "extremely punishing worldwide promotion and touring schedule", and consequently the trio will not play in Edinburgh on August 30.

Keane have also cancelled concerts at Ibiza Rocks and in Dublin next week.

Chaplin admitted: "I am gutted that I have to take a break from touring. I was really looking forward to these dates, but if it means we can do what we've got planned for the rest of the year then I'll take the time off. I want to apologise to our fans, and I hope everyone understands. Be assured we will be back out there soon."
