Mumford and Sons Postpone Tour Dates As Bassist Undergoes Brain Surgery

British folk-rockers Mumford & Sons have been forced to postpone three sold out shows in Texas and Louisiana after announcing on Tuesday that bassist Ted Dwane must undergo emergency surgery in order to remove a clot on the brain.

A statement on the band’s website stated: “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.”

While the Grammy Award winning band has canceled shows in Dallas, The Woodlands and New Orleans, they are set to be rescheduled when the bassist has gone through a full recovery. The band’s website also added, “We have no plans to cancel or postpone any other appearances along this current tour.”

At the end of the band’s short statement they expressed their devotion to their fellow bandmate and friend by saying, “We’re all wishing Ted a speedy recovery. Much love, Mumford & Sons.”
