Blossoms have postponed three London dates as their UK tour was forced into postponement amid the coronavirus outbreak.

The Stockport band were set to embark on their biggest ever tour of the country, in support of their latest album Foolish Loving Spaces.

But all of the shows have now been called off for the time being, which means the run of gigs at O2 Forum Kentish Town on March 17, 18 and 19 won’t take place.

The group’s huge homecoming show at Manchester Arena on March 28 has also been suspended.

Writing on Twitter, the band said they were “currently working on rearranging all headline shows”, adding: “We’ll let you know as soon as we have any info.”
