Matt Rife Taking Two Weeks Off From Touring Due To “Extreme Exhaustion”

Matt Rife will take a two-week break from touring due to health issues. He had postponed two Indiana shows at the last minute on Wednesday, citing a medical emergency. On his way to the show, Rife “experienced extreme exhaustion symptoms and nearly fainted,” according to a statement. His medical team has advised him to take immediate time off. The Chicago Theater and the Ryman Auditorium, where Rife had upcoming dates, announced that the shows will be rescheduled. His “ProbleMATTic World Tour” has been a huge success, selling over 600,000 tickets in under 48 hours. He is set to continue touring in the U.S. throughout August before heading to Europe. (Deadline)
