Singer Lorde announced she is postponing her Friday night performance at Mohegan Sun.
The "Royals" and "Team" singer says she is suffering from laryngitis. Her concert has been rescheduled for August 25.
"Connecticut — these past couple days I’ve been pushing through some horrendous laryngitis, and I regret to inform you that my voice hasn’t sufficiently recovered to be able to play the show for you tonight," she said in a statement. "I’m so, so sorry. I don’t take postponing a show lightly."
Lorde's Solar Power Tour was scheduled to stop at the Mohegan Sun arena Friday night at 7:30 p.m. The casino said ticketholders should keep their tickets to use for the show's rescheduled date.

In a message to her fans, Lorde said she had hoped to be able to perform tonight.
"I’ve tried everything, and unfortunately, it’s physically impossible for me to sing much of the set. Please accept my sincere apologies. All well besides that, and absolutely frothing to party with you when I am able," she said.
