Thomas Rhett Issues Statement

Thomas Rhett was forced to abruptly delay Saturday's Take The Bar To You tour performance at Chula Vista, CA, at the North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre because of "vocal swelling and irritation."

On the 27th of August (Aug. 27, 2007) the country star took the hard decision to pull his show and released an announcement to the fans.
