The shows will be rescheduled, according to the statement.
Rosanne Cash, the eldest daughter of late country music legend Johnny Cash, has postponed three dates on her current tour for health reasons.
“Rosanne Cash must postpone her performances due to an unexpected medical emergency,” her management posted on the artist’s Instagram page. “She is recovering under her doctors’ supervision, who have recommended a temporary restriction on travel and performing. This restriction is impacting her upcoming Wyoming and Montana shows. Rosanne deeply regrets the cancellation and looks forward to rescheduling appearances.”
In the second image of the post, a list of tour dates shows the postponed appearances were originally scheduled Sept. 8 in Sheridan, Wyo.; Sept. 9 in Billings, Mont.; and Sept. 10 in Bozeman, Mont.
Cash, 71, is scheduled to perform in Jonesboro, Ark., on Sept. 19, before making a string of European appearances in late October and Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on Nov. 9. Her schedule has her visiting several cities in Southern California in January.
The four-time Grammy winner has released more than a dozen studio albums since her 1978 debut. Her music spans genres, including country, pop, and Americana.
The singer and songwriter behind hits such as “I Don’t Know Why You Don’t Want Me” and “Seven Year Ache” was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2015.
EW has reached out to Cash’s management for comment.
Cash explained to Terry Gross on a 2009 episode of Fresh Air that her father very much influenced her love for music of many genres.
“When I was 18 years old, I went on the road with my dad after I graduated from high school. And we were riding on the tour bus one day, kind of rolling through the South, and he mentioned a song,” she said. “We started talking about songs, and he mentioned one. And I said, I don’t know that one. And he mentioned another. I said, I don’t know that one either, Dad. And he became very alarmed that I didn’t know what he considered my own musical genealogy. And I was very steeped in pop and rock music, and I grew up in Southern California. So he spent the rest of the afternoon making a list for me.”

She noted that the list was supposedly country music songs, but they were really just a diverse collection of American songs, which she recorded for her 2009 album The List.
“He covered every critical point in Southern and American music — early folk songs, protest songs, Delta blues, Southern gospel, early country music, Appalachian,” Cash said. “Everything that fed into modern country music was on that list. So his overview was really of a musicologist but formed by his instincts, you know, and just the rhythm in his own blood. So I realized when he gave me the list at the age of 18 that this was an important document, and I set about learning these songs. But it took me, I think, until now to realize that he was really giving me himself, a part of his heart and soul.”
Johnny Cash died in Nashville on Sept. 12, 2003, at the age of 71.
