DeGraw cancels Festival performance due to laryngitis
Gavin DeGraw has canceled his portion of today's Festival at Sandpoint performance with Colbie Caillat due to laryngitis.
“As many of you know, I've been battling a throat infection the last couple of weeks, taking meds, and trying to heal. Spent the afternoon in the ER today looking for a solution and unfortunately doc's orders are to hang it up for a few days and let the meds work their magic on me,” Gavin DeGraw said in an Instagram post on Friday.
“Please give Colbie all the love tonight. She's got the whole show on her shoulders with the band and crew and she's gonna knock it out of the park as usual,” DeGraw said.
