I lost my voice after Wednesday\u2019s show and had to call out Thursday. I did vocal rest and went back in for last night\u2019s show.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI pushed through because I hate missing shows and missing y\u2019all who travel from all over to see us\u2026 But it was mortifying and stressful and by the end of the show I couldn\u2019t even sing, there was no voice left. So I\u2019m taking this weekend off to rest and let my voice come back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barrera continued, \u201cGotta listen to our bodies and there is no shame in that, even though it pains me to miss a single second on that beautiful stage. Love y\u2019all. Sorry to miss you. Will also be out Aug 21 and 22 for different reasons.
