Rocker Lenny Kravitz has called off his planned autumn (04) 19 city concert tour, citing "family matters".

Earlier this month (AUG04), Kravitz announced plans to tour North America to promote his latest album BAPTISM, but now he's cancelled the outing, which was to begin on 11 September (04) in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

Kravitz says in a statement: "I was really looking forward to getting out there to meet and play for my fans.

"Unfortunately, things come up in life that you cannot control. I hope my fans will understand and I will definitely make it up to them with these shows next year (05)."
