Paul Rodgers Withdraws from Bad Company Reunion Due to Health Concerns
By The Riff Report Crew
The legendary voice of British rock, Paul Rodgers, has officially withdrawn from the long-anticipated Bad Company reunion at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, citing health concerns that require him to step back for a while.
“I have to prioritise my health.”
These simple words hit hard for fans who were eagerly awaiting the 2026 Rock Hall ceremony, which promised a joyful return of Rodgers alongside his Bad Company bandmates to perform timeless hits from their 1970s glory days.
Rodgers, 75, remains a revered figure in rock history, known for fronting bands like Free, Bad Company, and later joining Queen on global tours during the 2000s. His distinctive, soulful voice has deeply influenced generations of rock singers.
This is not the first time Rodgers has faced serious health challenges. Years ago, he survived major surgery that temporarily left him unable to sing or speak—a devastating experience for someone whose identity is built around his voice. Defying the odds, he made a triumphant return with his 2023 album Midnight Rose, showing that his passion and power were still intact.
Now, Rodgers is making the difficult but wise decision to put his well-being first, leaving fans hopeful for his recovery and eventual return to the stage.
