PEARL JAM singer Eddie Vedder has postponed his shows in San Diego and Los Angeles due to a COVID-19 outbreak in his touring party.
Eddie‘s concert with his new band THE EARTHLINGS at The Magnolia in San Diego, originally scheduled for tonight (February 15), will now take place February 27, while the show at YouTube Theater in Los Angeles, originally slated for Thursday (February 17), has been pushed back to February 25.
The concert postponements were announced on Vedder‘s social media pages on Monday (February 14). The statement read: “The Eddie Vedder and THE EARTHLINGS concerts scheduled for tomorrow February 15, 2022, at the Magnolia in San Diego and Thursday, February 17, 2022, at YouTube Theater in Los Angeles have regretfully been postponed.
“We have been following Covid protocols but still had a positive test in our touring party. The appropriate response is to postpone the next two shows. Everyone, please take care.
“Previously purchased tickets are valid for the rescheduled dates. If you cannot attend the rescheduled dates and desire a refund for your ticket, ticket refunds will be issued at the point of purchase.”
Vedder‘s February 21-23 concerts in Seattle are expected to go on as scheduled.
Eddie‘s most recent performance took place last Thursday (February 10) in Chicago.
THE EARTHLINGS are drummer Chad Smith, keyboardist/guitarist/vocalist Josh Klinghoffer, bassist Chris Chaney, guitarist/vocalist Glen Hansard, and guitarist Andrew Watt. The newly formed group gave their live debut at Vedder‘s own Ohana Festival last September.
Vedder has served as PEARL JAM‘s frontman, in addition to a guitarist and primary lyricist, since 1990. Inducted to the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2017 as a member of PEARL JAM, Vedder‘s trademark vocal style inspired a generation. His energetic and unvarnished stage presence coupled with his honest conversations with the audience led PEARL JAM as pioneers in live performances and social justice.
