Usher only announced the European and UK dates of his highly anticipated ‘Euphoria Tour’ last week but the plans have already fallen apart. Citing his new role as a coach on the spring 2013 season of ‘The Voice’ as well as daddy duties as the reasons for the change, the superstar has delayed his concert series until late 2013.

The European and UK shows of the ‘Euphoria Tour’ were initially scheduled to kickoff in January 2013 but the venture has been postponed until fall of that year. Tickets for the previously scheduled dates will not be valid at the rescheduled shows. Read the entire press release regarding Usher’s new plans below:

Live Nation Global Touring announced today that the Usher ‘Euphoria Tour’ in Europe will be rescheduled until autumn 2013.

Due to professional and personal commitments Usher will have to reschedule his upcoming European tour dates. With the recently confirmed commitment to ‘The Voice’, to ensure that his fans world-wide are treated to the best possible concert experience, the entire tour will be rescheduled to autumn 2013 with dates in both North America and Europe scheduled to run concurrently at that time.

“The feeling of euphoria that I get when performing for you is indescribable. I love each and every one of you and thank you for being there every step of the way. I truly appreciate and am grateful for your support while I take this time to focus on my children and continue to evolve with my fans. Evolve or evaporate.”

Love Usher.

The rescheduled Euphoria tour dates will be announced next year. Fans who have purchased tickets to the previously scheduled dates should return their ticket for refund at point of purchase. Tickets for the previously scheduled performances will not be valid at the rescheduled events.

Live Nation Global Touring wishes to apologize to any inconvenience to fans but look forward to seeing you all at the Euphoria Tour next year.
