«It has never happened to me in 40 years of concerts and tours... for the first time I find myself forced to cancel these first two Sicilian dates».

Francesco Renga, the former leader of Timoria who this year celebrates 40 years of career and 20 years of Angelo, the song with which he won Sanremo in 2005, cancels the first two concerts of the tour in Sicily. "After the rehearsals - he explains - last week I got bronchitis which then turned into viral laryngitis. I waited for the visit this morning (Friday 30 May) because I absolutely did not want to disappoint anyone, because this thing mortifies me... Just the idea drives me crazy".

"Unfortunately the situation has not improved - he continues - the ENT doctor strongly advised against any vocal effort so as not to compromise the healing and thus the entire tour". "I am so sorry and I feel the weight of this responsibility. I apologize to you, to my musicians, to all the people who work for this wonderful tour that is about to start. To my collaborators. See you soon".

The singer-songwriter originally from Tula will stop on June 27th in Piazza Cattedrale in Oristano, on September 6th in Piazza Santa Maria in Campanedda, a village in Sassari, and on September 7th (new date) he will be in Carbonia, in Piazza Roma.
