'It wasn't an easy decision': Country star Hardy axes European dates at last minute
Hardy has axed his European tour at the last minute. The country star was set to kick off the run at Copenhell festival in Denmark on Thursday (19.06.25), and was later due to play Birmingham, London, Manchester, Glasgow, Belfast and Dublin. Without giving an explanation, he stated it "wasn't an easy decision" to make. He penned on Instagram on Monday (16.06.25): "I have decided to cancel the European leg of the JIM BOB TOUR. "It wasn't an easy decision but one I had to make for my band, crew and my family. "Please know that I love you all and I will be back as soon as I can. "Refunds will automatically be issued by your point of purchase." The tour was in support of his 2024 LP Quit!!. The 34-year-old star - who first made his name as a songwriter for Florida Georgia Line - is due to continue his North American leg on July 18 at Country Thunder Wisconsin. Hardy's recent work includes contributing to Post Malone's upcoming follow-up to 2024 chart-topper F-1 Trillion. Malone told Billboard of working with collaborators including Ernest, Thomas Rhett and Hardy in Nashville: 'We just have fun. We just sit and f***ing talk and make songs. And so I'm pretty excited for the new record already.' Malone noted how he'd 'made probably 35 songs; it's just a matter of which one's rock, and which one's sock." He continued: "I sit there and listen to these songs, and I usually hate listening to my music, but listening to the band play, I get so excited.' Speaking about how he incorporates all his different styles – also including rock and pop - into one seamless set, the Circles hitmaker said: 'You put a twist on the instrumentation and the musicianship of it. We have Lillie [Mae] playing the fiddle and Cheese [Chandler Walters] playing the steel [guitar] and incorporating that into the old songs and then transitioning into the new s***… that's always been the thing about me, is it's all just f****** music.'

Hardy cancels European 'Jim Bob Tour' days before first show: 'It wasn't an easy decision'
On June 16, country singer Hardy announced on social media that the European leg of his "Jim Bob Tour" would be canceled, only three days before its first scheduled date. The "Truck Bed" singer announced the world tour in February, alongside supporting acts Koe Wetzel, Stephen Wilson, Jr., McCoy Moore and Sikarus. He kicked off the run in Chula Vista, California in May, playing a few West Coast dates before the scheduled European portion of the tour, which was slated to begin June 19 in Copenhagen. The European leg of the tour was scheduled to run from June 19 to July 3, including concerts in Belgium, Ireland, the U.K. and the Netherlands. "I have decided to cancel the European leg of the Jim Bob Tour," Hardy posted on Instagram. "It wasn't an easy decision but one I had to make for my band, crew and my family," he said. "Please know that I love you all and I will be back as soon as I can. Refunds will automatically be issued by your point of purchase." The next date on the tour is a show at Country Thunder Wisconsin on July 18 before the tour makes stops in Missouri, Michigan, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida and more. The run will end in September at New York's Madison Square Garden. The tour follows Hardy's 2024 album "Quit!!," which included songs "Jim Bob," 'Rockstar' and 'Psycho."
