Linkin Park has been riding high since recruiting new vocalist Emily Armstrong. The band put out a critically-acclaimed new album, “From Zero,” and have been busy touring the world in support of the record. Sadly on Friday the band had to cancel their show in Bern, Switzerland due to an unspecified medical issue with someone in the band.
“It is with great sadness that we have had to cancel tonight’s show,” wrote Linkin Park. “We’ve had a medical issue in the band, and are unfortunately not at a spot to be able to perform tonight. We have always loved Switzerland, and were so excited to perform here. We don’t take cancelations lightly and offer our sincere apologies to all of our fans affected by this decision.”
The band continued: “We will be rescheduling tonight’s Bern show to be a part of our 2026 European tour so that we can make this up to all of you. We hope to have the 2026 show date and details within the next few days, and fans who purchased tickets will be contacted by their ticketing company with further information and options. Thank you for your understanding.”
Earlier this year, Linkin Park co-founder Mike Shinoda talked about how Armstrong has done a great job both in the studio and on the concert stage.
Linkin Park co-founder Mike Shinoda talked about the job Armstrong has done so far filling some massive shoes. “Emily has had the insane challenge of figuring out the way to sing these songs and how to present ’em with us,” Shinoda said.
“And she’s put in so much work. She’s done such a great job. I think the reason it all works is because the talent part is not — that’s the lowest bar to clear. The higher bars to clear, the more unusual or difficult or hard-to-find things are more, like, ‘Do we have similar goals? Do we get along on a day-to-day basis? Can we ride in a bus together in a van and on a flight and not kill each other?’ And it’s the furthest thing from that right now. We are just really enjoying it. Every show has been the best. She’s doing a great job. We actually also have a new drummer, Colin. And their energy — they’re a little younger than us, too, so they have that younger energy and it keeps our energy high. And the shows have been going great. I can’t wait for you guys to see it.”
