Luke Bryan Refunds Fans After Stopping Mid-Show During His Latest Tour: 'I've Had To Do This Every Time'

Country music star Luke Bryan had a frustrating performance on Thursday, June 19, inside the Walmart Arkansas Music Pavilion in Rogers, Arkansas.

During the performance, which was part of his "Country On Tour" concert, Luke Bryan promised to refund fans after struggling with his vocals.

“This is the weirdest thing I’ve ever dealt with in my life,” the singer said, per Taste of Country. “I cannot have my voice in this venue for some reason. It happens every time, I don’t know why.”

The "Play It Again" singer then made an unexpected offer to the crowd.

“I don’t give a d-mn,” the singer said. “I’m gonna refund everybody their tickets tonight and we’re going to keep doing the d-mn show, OK?”

He continued, “We are just going to make this what it is," before adding, "I don’t know why I’ve had to do this every time.”

After the Arkansas show, the 48-year-old announced on his Instagram that two of his upcoming shows would be rescheduled.

“Due to illness, my shows in Dallas and Lafayette this weekend have been rescheduled to the following dates: 9/11: Lafayette, LA 9/12: Dallas, TX,” he posted online. “Please hold on to your tickets — they will be honored for the new dates. Thank you for understanding.”

Despite those postponements, Bryan is still scheduled to perform in Bonner Springs, KS, on June 26 for his next show, with the tour slated to continue until early October 2025.

Bryan's latest mishap comes just days after the country singer was captured on stage admitting to forgetting the lyrics to his song, "Strip It Down."

“I totally forgot all the words,” Bryan told the crowd, per Parade. However, the father of five quickly recovered, saying, "I got it!"

On social media, fans shared their mixed reactions to Bryan's latest string of tour issues.

On X, formerly Twitter, one user praised Bryan for refunding his fans, writing, "What you did last night was incredible."

"Thank you so much for pure heart getting through the show," they continued. "However, we would have 100% understood you canceling. You were still insanely good."

Other fans, however, expressed their disappointment with future shows being rescheduled.

"Bruh, again?" someone wrote. "Dallas is cursed. We go again in September!"

Despite the tour malfunctions, Bryan has kept busy in Nashville, Tennessee, where most recently, the singer teamed up with Raising Cane's founder Todd Graves to celebrate a $1 million donation to The Brett Boyer Foundation.

The foundation was co-founded in 2017 by Bryan and his wife, Caroline, in memory of Caroline's late niece, Sadie Brett Boyer, who was diagnosed with Down syndrome and a congenital heart defect (CHD).

According to a report from The Blast, Bryan related his approach to charity to his career goals during a previous press conference, saying, "I wrote all these goals down on a dry erase board and I remember [thinking] 'Pick one goal, do it. Pick another goal, and make them attainable, and here I am 20 years later, and I've hit [so many] goals."

He also discussed how important giving back is to him and his family. “As a family, we always try to do what we can to give back and make time for it,” he explained. “We miss out on some sleep, but at the end of the day, it feels good to do the right stuff.”

As he continued, Bryan explained how the donations to The Brett Boyer Foundation directly impact families dealing with CHD.

“So many times when people donate to a charity they never know where the money goes, but this money goes directly to the families and kids with CHD. Not only is CHD not talked about enough, but people rarely realize the strain it puts on parents and siblings and we want to help however we can,” Bryan said. “Family is at the heart of this and so many are in hospitals not knowing the future of their kids’ lives."

He added, "It’s an enormous undertaking for these families and knowing that The Brett Boyer Foundation can come in and help families worldwide is amazing. We started small and are growing!”
