Alicia Keys is rescheduling her 2020 “Alicia” world tour due to the coronavirus.

The singer told fans on social media that dates were held as long as possible, but “the good health of my beautiful fam is paramount.”

Keys had a July 30 date slated for Cadence Bank Amphitheatre at Chastain Park; earlier this spring she nixed a book tour appearance at Atlanta Symphony Hall.

Keys indicated in her post that rescheduled dates would be announced soon.
