Chris took to his socials to share the not-so-good news. After thanking his fans for their love and support, he wrote, "I had hoped to have some good news to share with you after this quiet time, but unfortunately the progress I have made is not enough. On doctor's orders, I will need to continue my vocal rest through the weekend to fully heal."

He also said that he is forever grateful for the "privilege" of sharing his "musical journey" with fans and that he hopes to be back soon.

Stapleton posted to Twitter, "See below for rescheduled dates.
