Bad Omens were forced to cut their set short last night (March 22nd in Australia) during a live set at the Triffid in Sydney, Australia. The decision to end the performance early came about as vocalist Noah Sebastian was suffering voice issues. Roughly eight songs were played before the plug was pulled.
Sebastian has since commented on the situation via social media, offering:
“Tonight something happened with my voice that I can’t explain as it’s never happened to me before. I take so much pride in my endurance as a vocalist and such good care of my voice on tour that until now I’ve felt invincible, but tonight I was humbled and finally experienced every singer’s worst nightmare, during our first time ever in Australia no less.
I chose to cut the set short instead of pushing on only out of concern that I’d potentially make whatever is wrong with my voice worse, and then also be unable to sing at the Knotfest performances that brought us here in the first place. With that said, my priority right now is getting my voice back to 100 percent in time for those last three shows here.
To anyone that left the show tonight disappointed, underwhelmed, or upset – I share all of those feelings with you. My frustration is immeasurable knowing that one of our first shows ever here ended this way and that there was nothing I could do about it.
Refunds will be available at your point of purchase to anyone that wants one.
– Noah / Bad Omens“
