The Child Of Lov cancels all forthcoming live dates after artistic unease

Having recently released his debut album, The Child Of Lov has decided to pull out of all upcoming live appearances.

These cancelled dates include festival stints at Glastonbury, Benicassim, Bestival and more, with the reason looking to be the musician’s unease with transfering his music to a live setting.

In an open letter posted online, the singer wrote: “If there’s one thing I know, it is that I have to be able to express myself in what I do musically. I will not go as far as saying that performing live is worth less artistically than producing and composing a record, but on a creative level, they are two entirely different things.”

“We all know that performing and touring is a reliable way to make money as an artist,” he continues. “But I am not in this just to make money. I’m a perfectionist and I want to translate my music to a live setting the most perfect way imaginable.”

The full statement reads as below:
