Geordie Greep has canceled scheduled U.S. shows in Boise, Salt Lake City, Boulder and Denver after an allegation of sexual assault was publicized outside his Vancouver concert. He addressed the allegation from the stage, denying rape and describing an encounter at a house party as a misunderstanding; the accuser’s account and the circumstances have not been reported in detail. An Omaha show and upcoming European dates have no reported cancellation notice.
Geordie Greep has canceled the remaining U.S. dates in Boise, Salt Lake City, Boulder and Denver after an allegation of sexual assault was publicized outside his October 8 concert in Vancouver. The former Black Midi frontman addressed the allegation at the Vancouver show, denying that he raped anyone and saying he had apologized after making an unwanted advance at a house party.
According to Stereogum, flyers handed out to fans outside the Vancouver venue accused Greep of sexual assault. The flyers called him a rapist and included the wording, “You know what you did this morning Oct 8th.” The report does not identify who distributed the flyers or provide a detailed account from the person making the allegation.
Greep’s Vancouver performance was delayed by nearly two hours. He then played a shortened set without his band after speaking to the audience about the allegation. He said he had been at a house party, “made a move,” and quickly apologized when it did not come off as he intended. He described the incident as a misunderstanding and denied rape.
The four canceled dates were in Boise, Salt Lake City, Boulder and Denver. Stereogum reported that ticket-holders learned of the cancellations through emails from the venues, rather than an announcement from Greep. At the time of that report, his October 14 show at The Slowdown in Omaha had no cancellation notice.
Four U.S. Stops Are Canceled
The cancellations affect fans and venues in four cities and leave the status of other scheduled performances uncertain. Because the venues informed ticket-holders directly, those attending other dates may need to check with their venue or ticket provider for current information rather than assume the entire tour has been canceled.
The episode also puts Greep’s public response and the allegation in the same news cycle. His comments are his account of the house-party encounter; the report does not establish the accuser’s version or independently resolve what happened. Keeping that distinction clear matters when reporting on an allegation that carries serious consequences for everyone involved.

What Happened at Vancouver
The allegation became public outside Greep’s Vancouver concert on October 8, when flyers were distributed to fans. The wording cited in Stereogum referred to something that allegedly happened that morning. The report does not specify the location of the house party beyond Greep’s description, nor does it provide further details about the alleged encounter.
Greep spoke onstage before playing an abbreviated set without his band. His statement combined an apology for making a move that was not welcomed with a categorical denial of rape. The subsequent cancellations were reported for four U.S. cities, while the Omaha date and a set of European shows scheduled to begin the following month had no reported status change.
““I made a move, and it didn’t come off, and I really quickly, of course, apologized.””

Omaha and Europe Remain Unclear
At the time of Stereogum’s report, the October 14 Omaha concert had no cancellation notice, and there was no word on Greep’s European dates, scheduled to start the following month. Those statuses could change. The report also does not explain why the four U.S. dates were canceled or give a statement from Greep about the cancellations.
The allegation’s full circumstances remain unclear from the source material. It does not provide a direct account from the person making the allegation, identify that person, or report whether any formal complaint or investigation exists. Greep’s onstage remarks are his response and do not by themselves settle the allegation.
Watch Venue and Tour Updates
Fans with tickets for the canceled Boise, Salt Lake City, Boulder or Denver shows should follow messages from the relevant venues and ticket sellers for cancellation and refund details. The source report does not specify refund arrangements.
The next reported dates to watch are the Omaha show scheduled for October 14 and Greep’s European concerts expected to begin the following month. No status update for either was included in the report, so readers should check official artist and venue channels for any later announcements.
