Escape The Fate have pulled out of their November UK tour with Chiodos and their Warped Tour show at London’s Alexandra Palace.

The Las Vegas purveyors of post-hardcore released a statement this morning explaining that vocalist Craig Mabbitt’s wife is due to give birth soon and he plans to stay at home.

The statement reads:

"The members of ESCAPE THE FATE regret that they will be unable to carry out their touring plans for Europe, including the European run of The Vans Warped Tour and dates with Chiodos. Vocalist Craig Mabbitt's longtime girlfriend was due to have their second child prior to the band's European run.

“She is now overdue and Mabbitt can not travel, as he needs to be home, by her side for the birth. The band sends their sincerest apologies to The Warped Tour, Chiodos and especially their European fan contingent and hopes to get to Europe in 2014 to the cities they are missing."

The dates are as follows

NOVEMBER 2013 Norwich Waterfront – 11th Glasgow QMU – 13th Birmingham O2 Academy – 14th Manchester Academy 2 – 15th London Alexandra Palace – 16th
