Frankie Valli, whose legendary falsetto defined the sound of 1960s rock group the Four Seasons, has canceled the band’s remaining 2026 tour dates, citing health concerns.
“I am truly sorry to disappoint those who purchased tickets to my shows, but I have decided to take a break from touring for the rest of the year to focus on my health,” the 92-year-old singer wrote on social media Friday.
Valli, frontman and the only remaining original member of the Four Seasons, began an extended tour in October 2023 dubbed “The Last Encore.”
The show, scheduled for April of this year, has been postponed to summer and fall.
Currently, all eight remaining shows in 2026 in cities from Scottsdale, Arizona to Detroit have been permanently canceled.
The Four Seasons rose to fame in the 1960s, but the band’s hits spanned decades, from “Shelly” to “December 1963 (Oh What a Night).”
The Four Seasons sold 100 million records worldwide and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990.
Valli, who has also established a successful solo career, received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2026.
Valli, known for keeping to a grueling touring schedule even at an advanced age, seemed to be keeping the door open for future performances.
“I look forward to getting healthy and seeing you all again,” Valli concluded Friday’s message.
