Bad news for Haim fans travelling to Electric Picnic this year

Carl Kinsella

Haim have announced on Twitter this afternoon that they’ll be pulling out of all upcoming European dates, ruling out an appearance at Electric Picnic.

The band, composed of the three Haim sisters Este, Danielle and Alana, posted a handwritten note explaining that their new album is nearing completion and they feel the need to stay close to home in order to get it done right.

Unfortunately, this will come at the expense of Haim fans – who’ll be disappointed that they won’t get to see the band at this year’s Electric Picnic, as scheduled.

The statement can be read in full below:
