White Lies Cancel European Tour

White Lies have cancelled a week of European tour dates after singer Harry McVeigh lost his voice.

In a statement issued the band said, “We apologise to fans expecting White Lies shows in Germany, Italy, Austria and Switzerland this week. Unfortunately we're having to postpone these dates due to illness.”

“Those of you in Munich on Monday night will have witnessed the problem first hand, these things happen, in the last 12 months we've played over 200 shows around the world and this is the first time its happened to us.”

All original tickets remain valid and the five cancelled dates will be rescheduled for February 2010.

There is currently no news on how McVeigh's illness affects White Lies forthcoming UK tour which is set to kick off a week today (Nov 18) in Bournemouth.
