The April 7 concert by the band Grouplove at the Knitting Factory has been canceled.

Event organizers cited health as the reason, as singer Hannah Hooper continues to heal from a vocal cord injury. The indie rockers canceled a bunch of dates at the end of 2016, but they hoped she’d be well enough to resume the tour in 2017. “Our plan now is for Hannah to recover fully so that we can get back out there as soon as possible and tour without interruption,” the band said in a news release.

Tickets purchased online will be immediately refunded. Others will be refunded at the point of purchase.
