By Alex Goudge

Blues legend Buddy Guy has cancelled his upcoming appearance at the TD Ottawa Jazz Festival later this month.

According to the artist's management team, due to a recent medical condition and upon the direction of medical professionals, Guy is unable to leave the United States for the foreseeable future out of concerns for his health.

“Buddy wishes his Canadian fans the very best and looks forward to performing for them again soon,” his management team said in a statement.

Guy was scheduled to perform at the festival on Thursday, June 30. JW-Jones and Cory Henry are both still scheduled to perform on that date.

Organizers are permitting exchanges for those who have already purchased platinum or regular day passes for this show.
