Envy on the Coast Cancel Tour

Envy on the Coast has been forced to cancel their tour with Saosin and the upcoming college tour due to Ryan having a case of acid reflux combined with a polyp and burst blood vessel affecting his vocal chords. For now the First to Last tour is still on pending that Ryan is better. We wish Ryan a speedy recovery.

Hey guys...Brian here. I have a bit of bad news. The past week of shows have been super rough on Ryan and he's been struggling to get through our set. Not fun...especially since he holds himself to such a high standard of performance. Yesterday at the Saints and Sinners festival were the pinnacle of his problems, vocally, and he told us that he's in dire need of a doctor to see whats wrong with him. It turns out....a combination of things were wrong with his voice. A case of acid reflux combined with a polyp and burst blood vessel on Ryan's cords had been severely affecting his ability to sing. I got off the phone with him nor more than 15 minutes ago and I can assure you this was a last resort decision and he's super upset about it. We made a decision as a band to cancel the rest of our tour with Saosin and the upcoming college shows so Ryan can rest his voice and get better. As of right now the tour with From First To Last is still happening...provided Ryan is up to it. Thank all of you for coming out to the shows and for your continued support and to everyone who was plannning on coming to the upcoming shows...we're terribly sorry and we hate the fact that we would disappoint any of you. Hopefully we'll see you guys soon.

Love,

Brian, Sal, Jer, Dan, and Ryan
