Springfield heavy emo band Our Lady have announced that they have decided to push back their tour that they had planned out to the West Coast and back. Here is the official statement they made from their website:

So today we had some bad news come our way. As well as a bunch of dates falling through last minute, our bass player John has found out that he has some unexpected pending legal issues that have put a financial stranglehold on his money situation and his ability to tour at the moment. So unfortunately this tour is being pushed back.

Honestly we were all really looking forward to this tour and seeing some of the great friends we have met in the past couple of years, as well as making new ones so this is a huge bummer for us. This is something we do because we love doing it, we don’t make any money, nor do we expect to, and we pay for everything directly out of pocket. So when situations like these come up it can be really difficult to bounce back quickly financially. Just because of the cancellation of this tour does NOT mean we are any less to committed to touring as often as we can. We have been on a fair amount of tours this year and have no intentions of stopping.

With that being said we have some good news to take in with all the bad. We will be doing a very similar route as the west coast tour in November with our pals in a really freaking great band called GHOST KEY. So if you are bummed that we aren’t going to be in your area in August just wait a couple of months we will be there! In the meantime we will remain playing shows locally and regionally as well as working on new music. Thank you so much for all of your support, and another huge apology to everyone who was booking shows for this tour or supporting us in anyway. Also, anyone who booked a show that fell through, we will be hitting you up next time around and would still love to come play your town, we understand how difficult it can be to host shows and we don’t hold anything against you. You were awesome the entire time, we are just battling too many setbacks this time around.

The only show Our Lady currently has lined up in Springfield is September 29th at Black Sheep. We plan on keeping you updated once the November tour dates are announced, or on any new material from Our Lady. The band will also be releasing their Vessels 7″ later this month through Mind Over Matter Records.
