Arizona’s Sacred Reich have had to cancel two shows on their North American tour with Sepultura after singer Phil Rind was hospitalized with a non-COVID-19-related illness.

Saturday, March 19, Phil released the following statement via social media:

“Hi everyone, I have been battling a non-Covid illness since last Sunday in Pittsburgh. I have been doing my best every night because as they say ‘the show must go on’ even though my asthma has been getting progressively worse.

I went to the hospital this morning in Philadelphia and have been admitted. As a result SACRED REICH will not be performing tonight in Philadelphia or tomorrow night in Baltimore on the Quadra Tour with Sepultura, Crowbar and Art Of Shock.

We are very disappointed to let you down. It sucks.

Have a great time at the shows and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Peace and love, Phil & Sacred Reich.”
