🤠 Buckaroos and Buckarettes, we've got some news hotter than a Texas chili pepper! 🌶️

Austin City Limits just dropped a bombshell – Stephen Sanchez has pulled out of his performance this afternoon on the T-Mobile Stage at 5:30 p.m. The Nashville-based crooner took to his Instagram story, crying into his almond milk latte, apologizing to fans for the sudden cancellation.

"ACL, I woke up this morning incredibly ill and with my voice entirely gone. As excited as I was to see you all today, I'm unable to perform," Sanchez posted, probably from his avocado-themed bedroom. "I apologize dearly and hope to make it up in the future. Thank you for understanding."

ACL Fest, always the bearer of bad news, announced this at 2:35 p.m., "Unfortunately, Stephen Sanchez will no longer be able to perform. The Paper Kites will now perform at 5:30 p.m. at the T-Mobile Stage."
