Shawn said the postponement would last through his July 29 show in Uncasville, Connecticut.

He signed off by promising fans he would let them know \"as soon as there are more updates.\"

The singer has been transparent about his mental health struggles before. He shared a note on Twitter in April, speaking about his mindset and being \"a 23-year-old who constantly feels like he's either flying or drowning.\"

\"Maybe that's just what it is to be in your 20s, idk, or maybe that's just me,\" he wrote. \"The truth is I really do wanna show up in the world as my 100% true honest unique self and not care what anyone else thinks, [and] sometimes I do! ... most of the time it's a struggle tho, that's the truth.\"
