Days after Church, 44, announced that he was canceling a tour date so he could instead watcha Final Four match in the Men’s NCAA Tournamentthat is taking place on the same night, the country musician revealed he will be making it up to disappointed fans with a “free” rescheduled show.
“Thank you to San Antonio for letting me take my family to this game,” he wrote in anInstagram poston Friday. “It took a minute to figure out how and when I could properly express my thanks.”
Church then detailed that he will be coming back to Texas in early September, where he will perform “a ONE of a kind FREE show for those of you who bought tickets and were planning to attend our canceled San Antonio show.”
The new show will now take place at the Whitewater Amphitheater in New Braunfels, as opposed to the AT&T Center in San Antonio. Church added that more details will “be announced soon.”
Earlier this week, Churchcanceled his showthat was supposed to take place on Saturday because it fell on the same day that the University of North Carolina men’s basketball teamwill go up againstDuke University.
