Sleigh Bells have been forced to cancel appearances at the Pygmalion and Midpoint music festivals following an injury. Derek Miller, guitarist for the band, hurt himself while skateboarding.

According to a press release, “Sleigh Bells want to apologize to their fans for these changes, and hope to get back to both Champaign-Urbana and Cincinnati in the near future.” Several other upcoming performances have been rescheduled as well.

Miller reportedly “fractured the radial bone in [his] right arm,” so in the interest of keeping him away from further risk, he is taking time to heal. Take a look below at the group’s updated tour list.
