Cody Johnson cancels tour amid urgent eardrum surgery

Cody Johnson had a tour lined up for the year, but he couldn’t continue due to health issues.

Johnson took to social media on Tuesday, October 8, to announce that he is canceling all of his shows until the end of the year to undergo surgery for a ruptured eardrum.

"It is with a very heavy heart I have to share that the remainder of this year's concert performances will not be able to happen,” the country star wrote on Instagram. “While battling a severe upper respiratory and sinus infection, I burst my eardrum. The severity of the rupture means I must undergo immediate surgery.”

Johnson continued, "The healing process will take many weeks, and it is not possible for me to sing during this time. Without the surgery, my downtime could be months.”

The singer added a prayer for himself: "I pray for full healing so I can get well and return to doing what I love. Thank you, COJO Nation, for the love and support now and always."

In the caption, Johnson told fans to “stay tuned for an email from your ticket providers for further details.”

The Dirt Cheap singer had six remaining shows on his 2025 tour. His performances are expected to resume in February 2026 and continue through July.
