Ryan Adams' UK and Ireland tour has been cancelled, following accusations of sexual misconduct and emotional abuse by seven women.
The US musician had been scheduled to perform two dates at Dublin's Olympia Theatre at the end of this month.
However, the venue has confirmed the concerts now won't go ahead:

The 44-year-old had also been scheduled to perform gigs at UK venues including the Royal Albert Hall in London.
Those concerts have also been cancelled.
Emotional abuse allegations
The cancellations come several weeks after the publication of a New York Times report detailing allegations against the singer.
Several women told the newspaper that Adams "offered to jumpstart their music careers, then pursued them sexually and in some cases retaliated when they spurned him".
The women who spoke out in the article included his former wife, the actress and musician Mandy Moore.
She alleged he engaged in 'psychologically abusive behavior'.
Ryan Adams denies the claims against him.
In a series of tweets after the report was published, he wrote: "I am not a perfect man and I have made many mistakes. To anyone I have ever hurt, however unintentionally, I apologise deeply and unreservedly.
"But the picture that this article paints is upsettingly inaccurate. Some of its details are misrepresented; some are exaggerated; some are outright false."
As someone who has always tried to spread joy through my music and my life, hearing that some people believe I caused them pain saddens me greatly. I am resolved to work to be the best man I can be. And I wish everyone compassion, understanding and healing.
