Howard Lawrence of Disclosure drops out of Australian tour

Disclosure's Howard Lawrence announced that he will no longer be joining the duo's upcoming Australian tour, saying that he needs to "take some time to look after myself".

The electronic musician made his plans known through a post on Disclosure's social media pages, confirming that he will not be joining his brother later this month for the group's performances in Melbourne, Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Auckland New Zealand, citing that he's been "really struggling with being back on the road touring again".

"Guy and I have been touring for well over a decade now, and although I've had some of the best times of my life (for which I'll be forever grateful), I've also always struggled with the intensity, jet lag, lack of routine and being away from my friends", Howard says in his social media statement. "This year I've done my absolute best to push through for you all, and have managed to play many, many shows, but sadly I've now hit a breaking point".

He expressed appreciation for his brother, adding that "Guy (absolute soldier) will still be coming with the rest of our amazing team to deliver bangers to all you lovely ravers down under".
