Summary

Sandie Shaw has cancelled her short tour of Northern Ireland to spend the month in a recording studio working on a single and an album. Her manager, Malcolm Field, stated that the decision was purely personal and separate from the local political situation. He also noted that she has disbanded her backing group.

She was scheduled to perform at two venues in the province, including the Coachman's Inn near Bangor. The venue's management had already sold tickets and is now looking for a replacement act. Other artists, including Showaddywaddy, Lena Zavaroni, and Richard and Linda Thompson, have also called off plans to visit Northern Ireland following the Miami Showband killings.
