Musician James Taylor has kicked off his 2024 tour.

The tour started in Philadelphia and continues through mid-September, where it will conclude in Virginia on Sept. 15.

Taylor was scheduled to perform at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on August 19 in support of the 2024 presidential campaign of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. He was set to follow performances by fellow artists Mickey Guyton and Jason Isbell, but he was ultimately unable to take the stage due to time limitations.

In an Instagram statement, Taylor wrote, “Sorry to disappoint. But it was a great and inspirational, quintessentially American moment. We were honored to be there.” Just hours before Taylor’s announcement on Instagram, White House correspondent Christian Datoc shared the DNC’s explanation for the last-minute cancellation on X.

The DNC wrote, “Because of the raucous applause interrupting speaker after speaker, we ultimately skipped elements of our program to ensure we could get to President Biden as quickly as possible so that he could speak directly to the American people.”
