The singer will be taking a break from touring for the "foreseeable future."
Lewis Capaldi has announced he will be taking a break from touring "for the foreseeable future," advising that he is, "still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette’s."
The Scottish singer said that his performance at Glastonbury festival over the weekend made it, "obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order, so I can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come."
Capaldi admitted to the crowd that he was starting to lose his voice after performing 'Bruises' on Saturday.

"I’m going to be honest everybody but I’m starting to lose my voice up here, but we’re going to keep going and we’re going to go until the end," he said.

"I just need you all to sing with me as loud as you can if that’s okay?"
Later in the performance he said, "I recently took three weeks off just because I’ve been none stop the past year and I wanted to take a wee break from my head for my mental health."
"I wanted to come back and do Glastonbury because it’s obviously so incredible so I just want to thank you all for coming out. I was scared but you’ve really made me feel at ease so thank you very much for that."
"I feel like I’ll be taking another wee break over the next couple of weeks so you probably won’t see much of me for the rest of the year maybe even," he added. "But when I do come back, when I do see you, I hope you’re all still up for watching."
