Country singer Tyler Farr had no choice but to back out of a festival performance after a recent motor vehicle accident.

The "Redneck Crazy" singer was scheduled to take the stage at the Goshen Stampede in Goshen, Conn., on June 13 but hours before his performance an announcement to the festival's official Instagram page revealed a change of plans.

"Due to a motor vehicle incident on his farm, Tyler Farr was taken to a local hospital and diagnosed with a severe concussion," the post read. "Tyler Farr will no longer be able to perform at the Goshen Stampede on June 13, 2026. We appreciate everyone's understanding and will share additional event information as it becomes available. We wish Tyler a speedy recovery."

The post then noted that Farr would be replaced by David Foster and the All Stars.

The message concluded, "The Goshen Stampede is full steam ahead with all events, and we're excited to get down, dirty and country with two huge rodeos, truck pulls, monster trucks, great food, carnival rides and family fun! Gates open at 11 a.m. today. Let's rodeo!"

Farr re-shared the post from Goshen Stampede to his now-expired Instagram Stories page, but did not elaborate on his injuries or the cancellation.
