British band The 1975 has announced the cancellation of their scheduled shows in Taiwan and Indonesia, citing “current circumstances” as the reason, just a day after Malaysia banned the group from performing in the country. The ban came after the band’s frontman, Matt Healy, kissed a male bandmate on stage and criticised Malaysia’s anti-LGBT laws during their headlining performance at the Good Vibes Festival in Kuala Lumpur.
