Todd Snider Cancels 2025 Tour Dates Due To Injuries From Alleged Attack In Salt Lake City

Update (November 4): Saving Country Music confirmed that Todd Snider was arrested on Sunday, November 2. According to the report, Snider was “arrested for suspicion of criminal trespass, threat of violence, and disorderly conduct — two Class B misdemeanors and an infraction — at the Holy Cross Hospital in Salt Lake City where Snider was being treated after the assault.”

“After receiving treatment and being officially discharged, police say Snider became belligerent, and demanded further treatment,” the article continued. “Snider then allegedly cursed at the hospital staff before being told to leave. An employee told Snider to not return to the facility, but Snider returned and allegedly threatened a member of the staff, saying, ‘I will kick your ass.’”

Saving Country Music also pointed to a report by local news outlet KSL.com, which stated:

“South Salt Lake Police Department said in a statement Monday that its officers were called out to investigate ‘a report of an alleged assault of a 59-year-old male’ Saturday about 3:40 p.m. at the Commonwealth Room.

“However, limited information about the incident was obtained, the department said. ‘At this time, the exact location and details surrounding this incident are unclear,’ police said in the release.”

Todd Snider canceled his 2025 tour dates after being injured in an alleged attack before a concert in Salt Lake City. The singer-songwriter was on tour supporting his just-released album, High, Lonesome And Then Some.

Snider started the the High, Lonesome And Then Some 2025 tour on Thursday, October 30 in Denver and had an off day on Friday, October 31. He was set to play a show on Saturday, November 1 at the Commonwealth Room in Salt Lake City. The venue announced the concert’s postponement on social media only hours before Snider was scheduled to go on.

“Due to injuries sustained in an incident last night, Todd Snider will be unable to perform at the Commonwealth Room tonight (Nov. 1) in SLC,” the Commonwealth Room posted. “We deeply apologize for the postponement and appreciate everyone’s understanding as he gets treated. More information on a new date will be available soon.”

Snider followed by canceling the remainder of his High, Lonesome And Then Some 2025 Tour dates in a statement shared by his record label Aimless that said Snider was the “victim of a violent assault outside of his hotel.”
