A few days after Bruce Springsteen cancelled his North Carolina show due to the recently passed anti-LGBT law HB2 (also referred to as the “bathroom law”), Bryan Adams has done the same for his show in Mississippi.

In a statement posted on Adams’ Instagram, he says he finds it “incomprehensible” that LGBT citizens are being discriminated against in the state of Mississippi. Adding, “I cannot in good conscience perform in a state here certain people are being denied their civil rights due to their sexual orientation.”

Read Adams’ full statement below.

Mississippi has passed anti-LGBT ‘Religious Liberty’ bill 1523. I find it incomprehensible that LGBT citizens are being discriminated against in the state of Mississippi. I cannot in good conscience perform in a State where certain people are being denied their civil rights due to their sexual orientation. Therefore i’m cancelling my 14 April show at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum. Using my voice I stand in solidarity with all my LGBT friends to repeal this extremely discriminatory bill. Hopefully Mississippi will right itself and I can come back and perform for all of my many fans. I look forward to that day. ‪#‎stop1523‬
