"I need a moment to focus on me and to make myself better for my wife, family and you, the fans," the country singer wrote on Instagram Tuesday, explaining that he is cancelling two upcoming shows.
Back in 2022, Hardy's tour bus veered off the roadway and overturned on its left side. Hardy had significant injuries including a shattered foot, punctured lung, four broken ribs and a fractured vertebra in his neck.
HARDY announced that he has cancelled two of his upcoming shows, as he is currently in the hospital after experiencing several panic attacks since his tour bus crash last year.
The country musician, 33, broke the news in a statement on Instagram Tuesday.
“I need to be honest with everyone for a second,” wrote HARDY, whose real name is Michael Hardy. “I’ve been dealing with some serious anxiety since the bus accident last year, and over the last two weeks it has taken control of my life.”
"It’s caused me to suffer many panic attacks, which have landed me in the hospital," he continued. "I need a moment to focus on me and to make myself better for my wife, family and you, the fans.”
As a result, HARDY shared that he would “need to cancel the two the mockingbird & THE CROW Fall Tour shows on Oct. 5th and 7th” in Simpsonville, South Carolina, and Brandon, Mississippi, respectively.
The “Wait in the Truck” singer wrote that tickets for those two dates will be refunded from the point of purchase and that the Georgia Rodeo show in Winterville, Georgia, originally scheduled for Oct. 6, will now take place on April 12, 2024.
He urged fans to “hold on to your tickets” for the Georgia Rodeo show as “they will be valid for the new 2024 date.”
“My plan is to be back and focused on Oct. 12,” HARDY said of the upcoming show in Jonesboro, Arkansas. “Thank you for understanding, see you soon.”
On Oct. 2, 2022, the singer-songwriter shared in an Instagram post that his tour bus was involved in an accident on the way back from Bristol, Tennessee, following a show the previous night.
HARDY wrote that the four passengers on the bus “were all treated for significant injuries,” and the bus driver remained hospitalized.
At the time, he said he was “released from the hospital, but ordered by doctors to recover for the next few weeks, which may cost us a couple of shows.” After assuring fans that he would "update in the days to follow" about any changes to the tour schedule, HARDY asked them to “please keep our road family in your prayers.” "Thank you for all the texts and calls. I'm alive and that's all that matters," he wrote over the pic. "I love you all."
