John Mayer Delays Album and Tour Due to Throat Condition [PHOTOS and VIDEOS]

It looks like singing ladies' man John Mayer won't be able to perform and record for a while, thanks to a throat condition.

The Grammy-award winning singer and songwriter released a statement in his blog, saying that he won't be able to perform and promote his new album due to his worsening throat condition. According to a report by TMZ, Mayer has developed a "granuloma," a type of nodules, in his throat. He will be unable to perform with his collaborator Tony Bennet in Los Angeles and must skip another appearance in Las Vegas.

"I'm bummed to have to bow out of both the iheartradio Music Festival in Las Vegas and an appearance with Tony Bennett in Los Angeles. I know there were people depending on me to be there and I'm sorry I can't be on those stages," Mayer wrote on his blog.

Mayer's upcoming album, "Born and Raised," (due to release later this year) will also be affected. Because he is having a hard time singing, some of the tracks won't be complete until 2012.

"'Born and Raised' is complete as far as music recording, song selection, and in some cases mixing, but because of this condition I couldn't finish singing on several of the tracks. This means the record will be released next year instead of this fall or winter," continues Mayer in the same blog post.
