With the second weekend of Coachella just a day away, ticket holders will see one act missing from the lineup. According to Pitchfork, French pop singer Héloïse Letissier aka Christine and the Queens has announced that she has canceled her festival performance due to her mother’s passing.

Letissier’s mom passed away in France Tuesday, April 16th and the singer has gone home to be with her family during this hard time. In a tweet posted on her social media account, Letissier wrote in French which translates to; “I can only write very simple sentences. I lost my mother on Tuesday night. I came back to cross this event with my loved ones – I will not be able to sing this Saturday. I kiss you.”

The original post is displayed below.

Je n’arrive qu’à écrire des phrases très simples. J’ai perdu ma mère dans la nuit de mardi. Je suis rentrée pour traverser cette épreuve avec mes proches – je ne pourrai pas chanter ce samedi. Je vous embrasse.
