Australian band Royel Otis were set to be back in the US for a few December shows but they have now canceled those. Roy says: “It feels like there is such a huge amount of stones stuffed into my heart right now having to say this. I am currently experiencing some devastating family matters that I need to be home for. I was trying to work out a way around not having to bail on the US December shows but there is no choice now and I need to be in Sydney. I am so sorry and I promise I will make it up to you!”
