After being holed up in the woods of Antacordes, WA for god knows how long, the world was finally getting a chance to experience lo-fi acoustic extraordinarie Phil Elverum’s latest project, Mount Eerie, as he toured across the country. Unfortunately, Elverum is being forced to cancel his current tour due to a family emergency. Check out the message explaining the cancellation that was posted on the Mount Eerie site after the jump. In the mean time, you can order the absolutely gorgeous new picture book (with accompanying record) put out by Elverum and co. right here.

“ATTENTION: ALL UPCOMING MOUNT EERIE CONCERTS ARE CANCELLED (due to a family emergency). VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY SORRY EVERYBODY. PLEASE DON’T WORRY. IT MUST BE THIS WAY. WE WILL SURVIVE IT AND THERE WILL BE MORE CONCERTS LATER. thanks for understanding”
