The Scottish hitmaker announced that all 24 upcoming shows for his Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent tour had been canceled in June, just days after struggling to wrap up his headlining set at Glastonbury.
He said on social media that it was “obvious” that he “needs to spend a lot more time getting his mental and physical health in order,” labeling the decision as “the hardest of his life.”
‘Hello everyone. First of all I would like to thank Glastonbury for being there, singing along when I needed it and for all the great messages afterwards. It really means everything,’ Lewis began.
“The fact that this probably doesn’t come as a surprise doesn’t make writing any easier, but I’m so sorry to let you know that I’m going to be taking a break from touring for the foreseeable future.
“I used to enjoy every second of these shows and I had hoped to get out after three weeks.
“But the truth is I’m still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette’s and on Saturday it became clear that I need to spend a lot more time getting my mental and physical health in order so that I everything can continue to do what I love. for a long time.’
“I know I’m incredibly lucky to be able to take some time off when others can’t, and I’d like to thank my wonderful family, friends, team, medical professionals, and all of you who have been so supportive every step of the way through the good times and even more so during the past year when I needed it more than ever.”
“I’m so sorry to anyone who was planning on coming to a show before the end of the year, but I need to feel good to be able to perform at the level you all deserve.

“Playing for you every night is the only thing I’ve ever dreamed of, so this has been the hardest decision of my life. I’ll be back as soon as possible. Always my love, Lewis.
During his performance at Glastonbury, Lewis became emotional as he began to lose his voice during the performance, prompting him to apologize to the audience – who then helped him finish his songs in heartwarming images that quickly went viral.
The musician had already taken three weeks off for his performance at Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage, but recently admitted that it wasn’t enough and that he was ‘still learning to adapt to the impact of my Tourette’.
Lewis has been open about his struggle with Tourette’s disease, a neurological condition characterized by a combination of involuntary sounds and movements called tics that can cause speech and voice abnormalities.
Others said the “very moving” performance “will go down in history” while helping to raise awareness about the condition.
