Years & Years have been forced into pulling a number of US tour dates due to illness.

The band were out on the road supporting Ellie Goulding.

However, they had to cancel their remaining ten shows because singer Olly Alexander is unwell.

The Brits confirmed on Monday (May 16): "It is with great regret and sadness that we have to cancel our remaining US shows with Ellie Goulding.

"It has been no secret that Olly has been unwell recently and we have been advised that he needs immediate rest to make a swift and full recovery."

With the band falling off the bill on Monday, Ellie Goulding ended up performing an acoustic set in Saint Louis as the night's warm-up.
