We are saddened to report that Huey Lewis and the News has canceled the remaining tour dates of the year after lead singer Huey Lewis told a stunned family and friends that he’s suffering from a catastrophic hearing loss, in particular, a disease called Meniere’s disease, an inner ear disorder.

Look, rock and roll can take your sobriety and in most cases take a portion of your hearing due to the decibels of sound rockers endure. Huey, however, had been quite concerned about his hearing, visiting the Mayo Clinic and the Stanford Ear Institute, looking for answers to the diagnosis. In 2011, Ryan Adams was diagnosed with Meniere’s and has worked hard to recover from the effects of the disease. The tour is in Huey’s best interest, and we’ll keep you updated on his health and any tour update as we receive it.
