Sinead O'Connor has cancelled all her upcoming concerts in 2022 "for her own health and well being" following the death of her son earlier this year.
Shane, 17, was found dead after he went missing from the hospital while he was under suicide watch in January.
The Nothing Compares 2 U singer had been due to perform at a number of Ireland-based gigs, including Live at The Marquee, Cork on Sunday.
She was also due to take to the stage Galway International Arts Festival and Dublin’s Iveagh Gardens next month but will now take time off until at least 2023.
A statement on O'Connor's official website read: "We would like to respectfully announce that due to the ongoing bereavement process, Sinead has been advised it would be healthier for her to take the remainder of this year off and we hope to reschedule shows for 2023 when she is feeling stronger.
"This has not been an easy decision for Sinead but, having been advised, a decision she has had to make for her own health and wellbeing at this time.
"We would like to extend our thanks and appreciation to Sinead's worldwide agency ICM who have handled this with the utmost respect and dignity and have worked tirelessly.
"We would also extend our gratitude for the continuing support and understanding of local and international promoters.
"Thank you also to Sinead's friends and fans whose support and understanding we hold in the highest esteem throughout this period.
"The love being shown has been a source of great comfort and peace for Sinead."
Shane - the son of Sinead and musician Donal Lunny, 74 - had been missing for two days in January with police launching a missing person appeal to help find him.
He was last seen in Tallaght, South Dublin on Friday, January 7 with the appeal being renewed on the same day.
However, police confirmed the following day that the search for the 17-year-old was called off.
"Following the recovery of a body in the Bray area of Wicklow on Friday, 7th January 2022, a Missing Person Appeal in respect of Shane O'Connor, 17 years, has been stood down," a spokesperson said.
In February, Sinead vowed to never perform again because there is "nothing to sing about".
She wrote on Twitter : "Just to say, suggestions there’ll be any performances this year or next year or ever again are erroneous. There will never be anything to sing about again."
