Zak Starkey Cancels London Performance Following Blood Clot Diagnosis

The drummer, son of Ringo Starr, is under medical orders to rest and take blood thinners for two weeks after a serious leg condition forced a last-minute cancellation.

• Zak Starkey, 59, was diagnosed with a blood clot in his right leg and advised to rest and take blood thinners for two weeks.
• The diagnosis led to the cancellation of a scheduled performance with his band, Mantra of the Cosmos, at London's Karma Sanctum Soho on January 21.
• The band had recently performed at Liverpool's iconic Cavern Club, where The Beatles began their career, making the event a meaningful experience for Starkey.
• Footage from the Cavern Club performance was shown at the Soho event, which proceeded without the band's live performance.
• Mantra of the Cosmos, formed in 2023, has released multiple singles and is currently working on an album, with further releases expected in 2025.
