Lewis Capaldi has been widely praised by his close pal Matty Healy after he made the decision to postpone work commitments.
The Someone You Loved hitmaker made the tough decision to put his work on the backbench after admitting to struggling with his Tourettes following a performance at Glastonbury.
Since sharing his announcement on social media, Lewis, 26, has been praised by thousands and now The 1975's Matty Healy gushed over the star while performing at Finsbury Park.
Addressing the sold-out audience, the Cheshire-born musician said: "I want to send my sincerest thoughts to Lewis Capaldi who is a good friend of mine.

"Who on the day when he had to cancel his tour, checked in on me.
"And it's also a reflection on how hard being a solo artist is as I would not be doing this show if I didn't have these amazing men and women behind me."
Shortly after Lewis' headline set at Glastonbury, he took to his Instagram and Twitter pages to share an emotional statement with his fans.
He penned: "First of all thank you to Glastonbury for having me, for singing along when I needed it and for all the amazing messages afterwards. It really does mean the world.
"The fact that this probably won't come as a surprise doesn't make it any easier to write, but I'm very sorry to let you know I'm going to be taking a break from touring for the foreseeable future.

"I used to be able to enjoy every second of shows like this and I'd hoped 3 weeks away would sort me out. But the truth is I'm still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette's and on Saturday it became obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order, so can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come."
The musician went on to add: "I know I'm incredibly fortunate to be able to take times out when others can't and I'd like to thank my amazing family, friends, team, medical professionals and all of you who've been so supportive every step of the way through the good times and even more so during this part year when I've needed it more than ever.
"I'm so incredibly sorry to everyone who had planned to come to a show before the end of the year but I need to feel well to perform at the standard you all deserve. Playing for you every night is all I've ever dreamed of so this has been the most difficult decision of my life. I'll be back as soon as I possibly can.
"All my love, always, Lewis x."
He had previously opened up about his struggles, admitting that if he needed to, he would make the decision to step away from the music industry and put his physical and mental health first.
