I, The Breather frontman Shawn Spann has given an update on his health following his hospitalization this week for internal bleeding. As a result of his ailment he will be missing the first week or so of shows of the bands run on this years ‘Vans Warped Tour‘. Come The Dawn‘s Marcus Barber will be taking his place on those dates:
“Hey guys, Shawn here
Just a quick update on my status: I was hospitalized the other day with internal bleeding and had to be forced to miss about a week of shows coming up. I am currently feeling a lot better as the awesome people at the Upper Chesapeake Hospital have put an end to the pain/bleeding. I am currently in recovery mode and plan to get back out on the road with the boys as soon as my doctor gives me the go ahead.
We are still waiting for my diagnoses to be wrapped up but have a general idea on where its going to end up so we can at least start a little plan to me being back on stage. With all that being said, Our awesome friend Marcus from Come The Dawn will be filling my shoes while I’m getting better. I am so thankful for him as id be devastated if my condition forced the band to stop performing.
Please give him and my boys a huge hug for me when you see them. I have a new page I plan to use to keep everyone updated with my health which is posted at the end of this statement. Thank you for your time, I love you guys”
The band have a new album titled “Life Reaper” scheduled for a July 15th release on Sumerian. You can see a picture of Spann in the hospital below:
