Walk the Moon cancels tour dates, including PromoWest Fest
The sound you heard earlier today was the simultaneous crying of teenage girls across the country who found out that Walk the Moon is cancelling its Work This Body summer tour.
Unfortunately, that includes a headlining spot at Columbus’ own PromoWest Fest.
Lead singer and keyboardist Nicholas Petricca says he needs to spend the summer to “focus on family” in light of his father’s early-onset Alzheimer’s disease.
PromoWest Productions said a new headliner will take the band’s spot, though they have not announced who it will be.
The Cincinnati-based dance-pop band shot to fame after their massive hit “Shut Up and Dance” received constant airplay on radio stations and in grocery stores everywhere.
