Rag'n'Bone Man cancels Lithuania gig with hours to go due to mystery illness
The 40-year-old singer - whose real name is Rory Graham - has "fallen ill" and had to pull the plug on his planned show in Kaunas, Lithuania on Tuesday (12.08.25) as his team apologised to fans for the disappointment.
On his Instagram page, a statement read: "Show cancellation today.
"We're deeply sorry to let you know that today's concert in Kaunas has been cancelled as Rag'n'Bone Man has unfortunately fallen ill.
"He is currently seeking medical care and we wish him a speedy recovery.
"We know many of you were looking forward to the show and may have travelled or made special plans, we truly appreciate your understanding at this time.
"Rory will be so upset to have to cancel this show and will be working hard to schedule a show in Lithuania soon."
Fans have been urged to get in touch with their ticket operator about refunds.
The Humans hitmaker is currently due to perform in Poland later this week at the Bittersweet Festival in Poznań.
He will be devastated to have missed the show, having previously spoken about his love of touring and playing live.
Speaking last year, he told Clash magazine: "I think I just enjoy doing loads! I'll take on as much as possible to make this work.
'It is exhausting… but I love playing live. So, if you have to get up early, do the grueling parts, then that's just the way it has to be, I guess.
"I've always loved it, and I still love it now – I don't feel any different than I did 10 years ago, to be honest.'
Rag'n'Bone Man had a packed scheduled last summer around the release of 2024 album What Do You Believe In? but he insisted he "thrives" on the hectic lifestyle.
He added: 'It felt like a lot, when I first looked at my diary.
"But I really thrive on jumping from country to country, doing a gig a day.
"I mean, not being 21 and getting by on four hours sleep is a challenge in itself. But I loved it. I nearly lost my voice one time… but it was alright!'

AFL coach blows up at filmmakers in ‘really strong scenes'
The Lions coach was caught off guard when the film crew came to the Gabba. AFL staff have had to step in and watch over Prime Video filmmakers after they 'ruffled feathers' at Brisbane during production for the upcoming documentary. Prime Video are currently going behinds the scenes with several AFL clubs to make a docuseries called Box to Box, not dissimilar to Netflix's famous Drive To Survive franchise that has been a raging success for seven seasons and changed the sport of Formula One forever. WATCH THE VIDEO ABOVE: Brisbane annoyed with Netflix documentary makers. But it appears there was one fairly important person who was left off the email chain before filmmakers turned up to follow Brisbane, with Lions coach Chris Fagan 'absolutely filthy' at how it played out. 'AFL staff themselves have now gone on the road with this production crew because they have ruffled feathers,' Caroline Wilson told The Agenda Setters on Monday night. 'But the really strong scenes took place at the Gabba. They (Prime) turned up the week of the Q-Clash, Chris Fagan was absolutely filthy, said he had no idea that they were coming on board, and had he known, he wouldn't have agreed to it. 'I think he agreed after a conversation with (footy boss) Danny Daly. Perhaps he hadn't really been paying attention, but I don't think he was thrilled. 'But they've left the Gabba now, they won't be back. 'They're at the Gold Coast — I think there was some dissatisfaction too at the Gold Coast, at how many players they wanted to get involved. Certainly Touk Miller's involved there. 'And interestingly, the Melbourne Football Club have become involved in recent days since the sacking of Simon Goodwin.' Stream The Agenda Setters for free, live or on-demand, anytime at 7plus Since the success of Drive To Survive, Netflix and other streaming giants have explored similar ventures with several different sports. This will be Prime Video's second AFL series, having produced one from the 2020 season as well. The Test has been a huge success for cricket on Prime Video. Netflix's Full Swing, which is golf's version of Drive To Survive, has been a major success over its three seasons. Break Point, which was a similar show for tennis, was not received quite as well, and only lasted one series. Others include Tour de France: Unchained (cycling) and Quarterback (American football), which are both on Netflix.
