The recent surge of Covid-19 cases resulting from the new Omicron variant has continued to make people increasingly uncertain about what the future will hold with regard to Covid safety. As a result, many concerts and tours scheduled in the near future have been rescheduled or cancelled either because performers were infected or out of caution. The latest band to take such precautionary measures has been Georgia metal band, Baroness.

Baroness’ tour, Your Baroness: an Intimate Evening with Baroness previously ran through much of fall 2021 and was later extended to 2022, with their first show of the new year scheduled on January 14. However, on January 12, the metal band announced in a statement that they plan to postpone their tour for roughly two months, with the rescheduled shows starting March 11. The group makes clear that their decision was made with the intention to “ensure a safe, healthy night for everyone in the room,” something especially necessary in light of the “intimate, ‘in your face’ nature of these shows.”

The Georgia band reassures fans who have bought tickets that they will still be valid on the rescheduled dates, with the exception of those living in Nashville and Tucson, where they were unable to reschedule a show. For those in Nashville and Tucson, the band recommends seeking out a refund through their original point of purchase.
