‘Over the past several months, I’ve been in a constant struggle with my mental health in ways that I can no longer ignore.

He wrote: I’m doing everything I’ve ever dreamed of and I still feel so lonely, still feel so unfulfilled.
‘Performing for you guys is the greatest privilege of my life, and this decision was not made lightly. I know many of you made plans, spent money, and were looking forward to these nights together. And I’m deeply sorry for the disappointment this causes.’
The talented musician said that he will now take time to focus on resting, seeking support, and reconnecting with himself without the pressure and pace of being on the road touring.
Holder concluded: ‘My hope is that this break will allow me to return stronger, healthier, and able to give you guys the performances you deserve.
‘Thank you for your patience, compassion, and continued support. It means more than you’ll ever know. I’m sorry [heartbreak emoji]’
He did have the support of his millions of fans, social media influencers, and even fellow country artists as Brandon Lake took to the comment section of the post with a very heartfelt message.
The 35-year-old country singer wrote: ‘Man lifting you up in prayer right now! That the spirit of panic would break and God would flood your heart and mind with peace.
‘Recognize (the lie), Replace (with truth), and Repeat…has helped me a ton when I’ve battled mentally. Love you dude and believing for a quick shift.’

He sings: ‘When no one’s around / I start to drown / So throw me a rope/ ‘Cause I only know / Of one way out / Is this how it ends / From losing a fight with myself / God only knows / The places I go/ But where is He now / When no one’s around.’
Holder began his life in the limelight when he moved to Los Angeles from Texas in 2019 to pursue a career in acting and music.
