Joan Jett is stepping away from the stage after suffering a serious injury that required surgery.

In a since-expired post shared to Jett's Instagram Story on Tuesday, the 67-year-old rock icon's team announced that her band Joan Jett & the Blackhearts had canceled their two remaining scheduled 2026 concerts in September.

"Following a recent injury, Joan Jett has undergone orthopedic surgery on a fractured vertebrae and will begin the necessary healing process," the statement read, via Rolling Stone.

"In close consultation with her doctors, Joan will not be able to perform at her forthcoming September scheduled shows in Costa Mesa, California, on Sept. 5 and Louisville, Kentucky, on Sept. 24," it continued.

"While Joan hates to disappoint fans, she will be taking this time to focus on physical therapy and healing. She's looking forward to delivering tremendous concerts for many years to come."

No additional details about Jett's injury were provided. Fox News Digital has reached out to Jett's representatives for comment.

The Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa, where the singer was set to perform on Sept. 5, shared Jett's statement on their webpage along with an update.

"While we understand this is a disappointment to all of you, we are happy to announce that Cheap Trick will be performing in her place, with X opening the show," the statement read.

"If you wish to attend the Cheap Trick / X show on Sept. 5, do nothing and your tickets will be valid. We look forward to seeing you," it added.

"If you wish to get a refund, please contact your point of purchase and we hope to see you at another show in the future."

Jett's concert in Louisville was scheduled to take place on the opening day of the four-day Bourbon & Beyond festival at the Highland Festival Grounds at the Kentucky Exposition Center. The festival's lineup includes Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age, Mumford & Sons, Chris Stapleton, Kacey Musgraves and others.

Jett first rose to fame in the 1970s as a founding member of the all-female rock band The Runaways. She later found international success after she founded Joan Jett & the Blackhearts in 1979.

The band released 10 albums between 1981 and 2013, scoring major hits including "I Love Rock ’n Roll," "Bad Reputation" and "I Hate Myself for Loving You." Joan Jett and the Blackhearts were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2015.

In 2022, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts released their first acoustic album, "Changeup," followed by their six-song EP "Mindsets" in 2023.

Joan Jett & the Blackhearts have stayed active on the road since they first formed. In recent years, they have toured alongside artists including Def Leppard, Mötley Crüe, Bryan Adams, Alanis Morissette and Billy Idol. The band completed their first U.K. headline tour in 16 years in July.

Last Monday, Jett shared an Instagram post featuring a compilation of clips from their U.K. tour, writing, "Thanks for the summer love Europe, can’t wait to come back."

Joan Jett & the Blackhearts' current lineup includes Jett, Dougie Needles, Hal B. Selzer, Michael McDermott and Kenny Laguna. The band currently have no scheduled upcoming shows.

Jett has previously acknowledged that decades on the road have taken a physical toll and explained how she has adapted her fitness routine as she has aged.

"I never had to work out my whole life," she told USA Today in 2025. " I was just lucky I had an athletic body. But now it’s a different story. I see an arm and am like, ‘Whose arm is this with the crepe-y skin?’"

"But I try to walk every day and I do some weights," she continued. "I had a shoulder operation so it’s important to keep my muscle strength up and I do a lot of core work. And you know, traveling, walking through airports and venues, that’s my exercise. But the traveling, that’s the one part of my job that I don’t love. It’s all wear and tear on your body."
