According to the announcement, “doctors detected a serious heart condition during a routine appointment that requires immediate medical attention.” The announcement notes that Mason’s expected to make a “full and successful recovery.”

“I’m heartbroken to have to cancel these dates, but it’s Doctor’s orders,” Mason said in a statement. “I’ll be back, and better than ever, in 2025.”

Mason, who recently released his memoir, Only You Know and I Know, was due to play Santa Barbara on Tuesday and had West Coast dates booked through Oct. 12 in Stateline, Nevada.
