    Looks like he’s cancelled all 11 concerts on this tour:

    Sorry to hear this, must be getting on for a year that he’s been out now? Very much hope he will be fit to play again soon.

    He canceled most of his concerts since early 2018. As far as I know his hand injury continue to affect his career. Hope he get well soon.

    Does anyone know specifically what is wrong?

  • Petros Linardos says:

    Vastly respected: indeed, and deservedly so.

    He’s had more than his fair share of health struggles, but keeps coming back. Fingers crossed for this great musician.
