Björk has announced a cancellation of a number of her upcoming tour dates and festival appearances.

The Icelandic singer was scheduled to play sets at La Route Du Rock in Saint-Malo, France on August 15, Pitchfork Music Festival Paris on October 30, and Iceland Airwaves on November 4-7.

A statement was released by Björk's representatives, reading: "We’re really sorry that due to a scheduling conflict beyond our control, Björk is not going to be able to play the remaining summer and autumn tour as planned. Björk had been really been looking forward to these concerts, so it is with regret that we announce the cancellation and we hope you understand."

Björk was sharing the Pitchfork Festival Paris bill with an array of awesome acts including Deerhunter, Ariel Pink, Father John Misty and Spiritualized. 

If you are missing Björk at any of these dates, take solace in the fact that you can now stream her latest album Vulnicura on Spotify despite the singer's resistance to do so for the first 6 months after it's release.
