Mumford and Sons Bassist Hospitalised
Indie | Wednesday 12th June 2013 | Abby
Three US Mumford and Sons concerts have been postponed, due to a medical emergency.
Ted Dwayne, bassist for Mumford and Sons, was hospitalised yesterday with a blood clot on his brain and surgery is required. Dwayne claimed he had been feeling unwell for a number of days before arranging an appointment to see a doctor. Three of the Mumford and Sons concerts have been postponed due to this misfortune, however, the band are still set to play Glastonbury as promised. The official Mumford and Sons statement on the mishap is below.
To our fans -
Our friend and bandmate Ted has been feeling unwell for a few days, and yesterday he was taken to a hospital to receive emergency treatment. The scans revealed a blood clot on the surface of his brain that requires an operation. Ted is receiving excellent care and we are being assured that he will recover quickly from surgery.
Sadly we have to postpone three upcoming headline shows planned for this week in Dallas on Tuesday 6/11, Woodlands on Wednesday 6/12, and New Orleans on Thursday 6/13. All dates will be rescheduled and will be announced as soon as we can; all tickets for this week's events will be honoured at their rescheduled dates. We have no plans to cancel or postpone any other appearances along this current tour.
We're all wishing Ted a speedy recovery.
Much love,
Mumford & Sons
All of us here at Guestlist are wishing Ted Dwayne all the best for his surgery and hope he gets well soon!
