After going solo, she achieved UK top 20 hits including Sky and I Put A Spell On You.

Posting on her Instagram story, Sonique broke the news about her tour.

She shared: "I'm so saddened to let you know that due to circumstances beyond my control, my upcoming tour has been cancelled.

"I'm deeply disappointed, but I look forward to announcing new dates in the not too distant future.

"My heartfelt apologies to everyone who bought a ticket.

"Ticket refunds are available at point of purchase.

Sonique first announced the tour earlier this year – it was intended to celebrate 25 years of her debut album Hear Me Cry.

She posted on Instagram at the time: "It feels so good to be back!"

The tour had been planned to launch on October 3 at Boiler Shop in Newcastle.

It would have concluded on November 1 at CHALK nightclub in Brighton.

Further planned cities included Manchester, Bristol, Norwich, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Edinburgh and London.

Back in 2001, Sonique received a BRIT Award for Best British Solo Artist.

Meanwhile, she released her most recent album, titled Sweet Vibrations, in 2011.

Speaking previously to Dazed, Sonique revealed her mum predicted It Feels So Good would be a huge success.

She said: "My mum felt it.

"I wanted to play a record that I could dance to but also relax to, and I think it really does that.

"My mum claimed it as well, she told me it would be a hit and I laughed at her at the time."
