Alan Jackson, a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, disclosed on Tuesday that he has been diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth syndrome, a set of ailments that causes nerve damage. As a result, his ability to move and keep his balance on stage has been impaired as a result of this condition.
During an interview with Jenna Bush Hager of the “TODAY” show, Jackson, who is 62 years old, stated that he had received the sickness from his father, and that numerous members of his family have been impacted by it. His condition was identified ten years ago.

Jackson stated, “It’s been affecting me for years, and it’s becoming more and more visible to everyone around me.” “And I know I’m stumbling around on stage, and now I’m having a little trouble balancing even in front of the microphone, and so I just feel very uncomfortable, and I just want people to know that’s why I look like I do,” she continued. “And I know I’m stumbling around on stage, and now I’m having a little trouble balancing even in front of the microphone.”

This past spring marked the release of “Where Have You Gone,” Jackson’s first new album to be recorded in a studio in over six years. At this time, he just has one tour date confirmed, and it will take place at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville on October 8. This show was originally supposed to take place in 2020.
