The current COVID situation has affected another tour.

Announced on Friday, drone artist Author & Punisher announced they’re cancelling their U.K. tour, which was set for February. Their European trek, which was also originally slated for next month, has been postponed to March and April. The artist said this about the touring change:

“Some good news and some bad news. Unfortunately we will have to cancel upcoming February dates in the UK and postpone mainland EU shows until late March/April.

I have decided with the current omicron surge, we need to postpone February’s EU/UK tour to a later time. I wanted nothing more than to share the new album with you right as it is coming out but cases are at an all time high and it’s just too much of a risk to be traveling overseas at the moment. Trust me, when this settles I'll be out there. I apologize to everyone who helped book and organize and to fans who planned to attend.”

For their European tour, the act will be joined by Texas industrial act Mvtant on most dates. New tour dates can be seen below.

Author & Punisher will be promoting their new studio album Krüller, which arrives on February 11 via Relapse Records. Pre-orders for Krüller can be made here.
