Unfortunately Lauri will have to cancel the upcoming shows in Russia, Latvia and Estonia. This is due to scheduling issues with the new Rasmus album. Mixing of the album is in critical phase and requires immediate attention of Lauri.

“I feel really sorry I have to cancel these shows but the situation is what it is and sometimes hard decisions are required.
I’ve already started to write new material for the next solo album and will try to re-schedule these shows as soon as possible. But now I have to focus on The Rasmus. I’m very excited about the new album and can’t wait to get it out and going on tour with Aki, Eero and Pauli” says Lauri.
