The bad news is that a member of their touring crew has tested positive for the virus, and out of protection for fans and others members of the team they have to cancel shows in Orlando, Florida on Nov. 4 and Atlanta on Nov. 5.

Due to routing conflicts and their confirmed touring schedule in 2022, the duo's unable to reschedule these shows, but offer hope in the fact that some of the tour stops on Kenny Chesney's 2022 "Here and Now Tour," for which they're opening acts, are near both cities.
