Ari Lennox To Replace Tems At Governors Ball

Ari Lennox will replace Tems at the 2023 edition of the Governors Ball in New York City.

“With great sadness I must announce that due to unforeseen circumstance, I won’t be able to perform at Governor’s Ball,” Tems wrote on Twitter. “Please know that it was not my intention for this to happen and that it hurts me to know that I can’t be there with you all.”

“I wish there was more I could say to make things better. Thank you for your unwavering support and understanding during this time. I Love you so dearly. God bless,” the R&B singer added.

Governors Ball will have a new venue this year. It will be held during June 9-11 at Flushing Meadows Corona Park.

The three-day event will also feature artists such as Lizzo, Odesza, Kendrick Lamar, Lil Nas X, and Lil Baby.
