Zach Bryan 'forced' to cancel Oklahoma show over safety concerns

Zach Bryan is speaking out after being "forced" to cancel a concert.

The "Something in the Orange" singer, who is currently on his "With Heaven on Tour," took to Instagram Friday to announce that night's concert in Tulsa, Oklahoma, would be canceled due to "dangerous" weather conditions.

Addressing his statement to his "fellow Oklahomans," Bryan wrote, "I am being forced by my team to cancel the show tonight due to the threat of extreme and dangerous weather.

I've never canceled a show in my life but I unfortunately don't have a choice in the matter."
He told his fans that refunds for ticket purchases would be issued automatically, and noted that Saturday's show, scheduled for the same venue in Tulsa, is "still set to proceed as planned."
