American rock band The Georgia Thunderbolts were scheduled to cross the Atlantic and tour The United Kingdom in July. Unfortunately, that won’t be happening now. BraveWords has received the following statement:
“It is with heavy hearts we have to announce the cancellation of our first ever UK tour. We have had our sights set on touring the UK since our band’s infancy. We were so looking forward to playing your stages and making new friends that we could share our live music with.
On Thursday, June 19th, while operating heavy construction equipment for his father, our lead singer, T.J. Lyle, suffered a mild stroke. T.J. is recovering the best, but his medical team feels he should rest up a bit, not get too hot and avoid flying for a while.
A huge thank you to all for prayers and everyone pulling for T.J. We promise we will be coming to your shores soon.
Full Steam Ahead… Damn the Torpedoes!!”
The Georgia Thunderbolts release their sophomore album, Rise Above It All, in August 2024 via Mascot Records. The record features their signature blend of Southern rock, blues, and heartfelt Americana, showcasing the band’s profound emotional and artistic growth fostered by their years on the road.
