Icelandic songstress Bjork has discovered a nodule in her vocal chords. So far it looks like she will not require surgery, but she has cancelled her shows in Buenos Aires, and will take some time off to fix it.
Bjork took to Facebook to let her fans know about the problem, saying:
“im sorry to say that i have a nodule on my vocal chords … therefore cannot complete buenos aires gigs … shame , as i really love the city and would have loved to stay longer . i hope i can go back later soon !!! warmth , björk.”
The condition has effected other musicians: most recently John Mayer and Adele, who both had to take the option of surgery, which for a musician can be a very serious problem for their recovery.
Bjork is still aiming to play at her shows and festivals for the Summer (Northern Hemisphere).
