“The affected crew members and I are all resting and isolating. We’re all doing ok.”

A tour date in Saskatoon the night before was cancelled due to positive COVID-19 tests among two crew members. Subsequent shows in Winnipeg, St. Paul and Milwaukee were also cancelled after a third positive test among the crew.
The singer rescheduled multiple dates for shows in Montreal and Toronto that were supposed to take place this week.
“Being back out on the road singing for all of you has been so beautiful and rewarding. I hope everyone understands we’ll see you in the new year,” Green said.
