Australian rock band Jet have been forced to cancel their forthcoming European tour because their lead singer Nic Cester has caught laryngitis.
The band had to cancel gigs previously due to Cester's illness, and it seems that he has not fully recovered.
According to the band's official website the frontman saw a doctor in London on Friday, who told him to rest his voice after discovering nodules on his vocal chords.
A statement from Chris Cester read, "There isn't much more I can say than that we're sorry we had to do this. Everyone is extremely frustrated, no one more so than Nic. I know everyone in the band was looking forward to this leg of the tour immensely".
The singer is currently in London undergoing specialist treatment.
