THE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH have run into trouble during their US tour. According to a story this morning on NME, the band have lost co-vocalist Jacqueline Abbott for the remainder of the jaunt. The official word at this point is that Abbott had to cancel her role in the tour for "personal reasons." It's to be assumed that this doesn't impact her role in the band - just on this tour. This will be the second time that Abbott has missed out on a US tour - during the band's last trek through the States, she was pregnant and unable to fly.
