Pop Icon Adam Ant and his team were forced under a mandatory evacuation order in Ft. Lauderdale, FL following the successful opening night of his ANTHEMS – The Singles USA tour.

Adam Ant had been performing in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl last night when the artist, his band and team were forced under a mandatory evacuation order to leave the area in advance of the pending arrival of Hurricane Irma. Adam Ant and his crew are all fortunately safe following the evacuation.

Adam will reschedule his Florida shows in Clearwater, Orlando and Jacksonville and will continue the tour with the next show in New York City on September 13.

“The well-being of all of Adam’s fans is a priority and the decision to reschedule the three shows is already under way”, said the band’s spokesperson in a statement. “More details regarding the new dates will follow as soon as they have been finalized.
