CNN —Following a difficult performance at the Glastonbury Festival over the weekend, Lewis Capaldi is taking a break from touring. The 26-year-old singer has been struggling with Tourette’s Syndrome, a neurological disorder that causes involuntary movements and sounds. Capaldi appeared to struggle on Saturday while singing his hit, “Someone You Loved,” when the audience stepped in to help him finish the song. “Playing for you every night is all I’ve ever dreamed of, so this has been the most difficult decision of my life. I’ll be back as soon as I possibly can.”A documentary about his diagnoses and living with the syndrome, “How I’m Feeling Now,” was released by Netflix in the Spring.

CNN —Lewis Capaldi is taking some time for himself. The Scottish singer-songwriter shared a message on his verified Instagram page on Monday notifying his followers that he is canceling all previously scheduled performances until his appearance at the Glastonbury Festival in England on June 24. “It’s been such an incredible time leading into this new album, and seeing all of the support from everyone has been beyond anything I could have ever dreamed of,” his statement began. “I’m getting all the help and support I need from the incredible people around me who I’m so grateful for,” Capaldi wrote, before assuring his followers that he “can’t wait to be back doing it again.”In February, Capaldi revealed during an Instagram live that he was diagnosed with Tourette’s Syndrome, a neurological disorder that causes involuntary movements and sounds. He said at the time that the condition is something he deals with “all the time.”Capaldi was scheduled to perform various shows around the UK before taking the stage at Glastonbury in late June.

At the Grammys in 2020, he had an Andy Kaufmanesque face-off on the red carpet with an unsuspecting Ryan Seacrest. Sometimes, they happen when he’s onstage — at one recent concert, the crowd finished the songs that he couldn’t. But the tics subside when he’s at ease: When fans came up to him outside the Ear Inn to chat, they all but disappeared. “Every piece of content or thing I see with my name next to it is closely followed by Tourette’s. Which is mental, ’cause then I’m like, Billie Eilish has Tourette’s, and she doesn’t bang on about it like I do.”He continued, “It feels dirty.
