Joan Jett has cancelled upcoming tour dates while recovering from recent surgery for a fractured vertebra. Multiple outlets report that the Blackhearts frontwoman is taking time off the road to “begin the necessary healing process,” citing recovery needs after an injury. Jett’s team announced that she will not be able to perform scheduled shows in September. Deadline specifically lists dates in Costa Mesa, California, and Louisville, Kentucky, as affected by the cancellation. Rolling Stone and NME similarly describe the cancellations as part of Jett’s post-surgery recovery timeline, without providing additional medical details beyond the fractured vertebrae and the need for healing. The reports focus on the announcement and the impact on the planned September performances, with no indication in the cited coverage of rescheduled dates or alternative events. The cancellations are presented as a temporary measure to support her recovery and health following the orthopedic procedure.
