Justin Moore didn’t specify how long he’d be off the road in announcing his break on Tuesday (June 9).
The “Small Town USA” singer announced he was pulling back for health reasons. “This is the right decision for me and my family,” he wrote on social media.
In addition to summer fairs and festivals, Moore was scheduled to open for Riley Green on the Cowboy As It Gets Tour. It appears this hiatus will cut into those dates.

Canceled Justin Moore Appearances
In addition to two shows in Dewey Beach, Moore has canceled appearances on five of Green’s Cowboy As It Gets Tour stops. Those shows will proceed without him, but they’ve all been removed from his concert calendar. Here’s the full list:

What’s Wrong With Justin Moore?
Moore gave no indication about what’s plaguing him in his social media posts. His abrupt decision was met with tremendous support, with over 15,000 likes on Instagram and responses from artists like Jake Owen, Caylee Hammack, Priscilla Block and Jacob Bryant.
The only issue he’s shared recently is a knee injury suffered skiing, but he said at the time he’d be able to continue touring.
“I look forward to getting back out there later this summer and doing what I love most,” he writes.
Moore is married to wife Kate (2007). They have four kids in daughters Ella, Kennedy and Rebecca, and one son named Thomas.
