Stapleton was to perform Thursday in Cincinnati, Ohio, but is moving the show to 2022. In addition, his Friday and Saturday concerts in Nashville have been delayed to Dec. 10 and 11.

"I want to thank you all for your well wishes and kind words you have shared over the last few days," Stapleton said in a statement. "I had hoped to have some good news to share with you all after this quiet time, but unfortunately the progress I've made is not enough."

"On doctor's orders, I will need to continue my vocal rest through the weekend in order to fully heal," he added. "I am sorry that so many of you have been inconvenienced and I'm truly thankful for your patience and understanding."

"To all my friends in Sioux Falls, I am sorry to let you know that I am unable to perform tonight's show due to laryngitis," he said on Instagram. "I want you all to know this wasn't a decision we made lightly. I was hoping that my voice would improve with time today, but it has only gotten worse."
