PRIOR LAKE, Minn. (FOX 9) - Country group Lady A will no longer be performing at the Lakefront Music Fest in Prior Lake Saturday night due to a health emergency, according to event officials.
Charles Kelley, one of the singers in the trio, has appendicitis, according to the band's Twitter.
"This morning Charles is in good hands and we're continuing to pray for his recovery," read a statement from the band. "The minute he is cleared by doctors, we will be back on the road to see y'all. We appreciate your understanding."
Lady A was originally scheduled to be the headliner of the event. Organizers announced the schedule change late Friday night.
The festival will still go on with extended sets from singers Jake Owen and Noah Guthrie. Tickets are sold out.
Lady A will return to Lakefront Music Fest in 2023.
