Charlie Daniels
Charlie Daniels is recovering after having a pacemaker implanted today (March 28) at a Nashville area hospital. He plans to be released tomorrow and will spend two weeks resting at home.
As a result of the surgery, his performance at MTSU’s Murphy Center in Murfreesboro, Tenn., as part of the World Outreach Church Easter service, has been cancelled. Additionally, two Charlie Daniels Band concert dates will be re-scheduled, those are performances originally set for April 5 in Englewood, NJ and April 6 in Newark, OH. Daniels will resume his touring schedule April 11 with an appearance in Lynchburg, Va.
During a doctor visit on Monday (March 25), he was diagnosed with a mild case of pneumonia and admitted to the hospital for routine tests. The tests revealed that a pacemaker was needed to regulate his heart rate.
