Bill Kreutzmann and his 7 Walkers project have been forced to cancel a series of upcoming performances. According to a statement posted to the group’s Facebook page, Kreutzmann has been suffering from recurrent severe lateral epicondylitis in his left arm, affecting his ability to perform as a drummer. The cancelled shows include an October 12 appearance at the Harvest Fest & Freedom Fair as well as an October 13 appearance at the Family Roots Fall Festival. Kreutzmann will be sidelined for the next several months, according to the statement.
