This year I’ve invested all my savings and earnings into my shows, styling, and band to be able to tour. While my debut album has opened many amazing opportunities, the financial strain on touring has become too much,” she wrote on X/Twitter today (August 20).“Despite my best efforts to secure funding for this incredible opportunity, it hasn’t been possible.

This is the tough reality of the music industry, whether you’re signed or independent.“I’ve explored every possible option to make this work because I adore Remi and her fanbase, and I was so excited to come to the States.
