Concert promoters Live Nation released the following statement:

“After last night’s concert  it was necessary to seek medical advice due to vocal issues Frank Ocean experienced during the show. It has subsequently been confirmed that Frank has suffered a small tear to one of his vocal cords and has received medical advice that he must rest his voice. This makes the completion of his remaining Australian dates impossible. Unfortunately due to Frank Ocean’s tight tour schedule, it is not possible to schedule replacement dates, however we will be working to confirm a return to Australia as soon as is practical.”

Ocean’s most recent release Channel Orange peaked at number 9 on Australian charts.
