The post told fans that he'd have to cancel shows planned for Nov. 2 in Indiana and Nov. 3 in. Tennessee.

"We would like to apologize to our fans that have always been so very supportive and hope you will keep Mark in your prayers," the message reads.

"Mark was admitted to the hospital Wednesday evening and is now in the Critical Care Unit in stable condition," the message reads. "He is receiving care and undergoing multiple tests to identify the cause of his medical issues."

"We will post more updates once the doctor determine his condition."

Singer Neal McCoy heard the news and wished his friend well in the comments section of a different post. Taste of Country has reached out to Chesnutt's team for more information.

Who Is Mark Chesnutt?

The Texas-raised Mark Chesnutt first broke onto the country charts with "Brother Jukebox" in 1990. He notched eight No. 1 songs across the decade, the final being "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing," an Aerosmith cover. His honky-tonk sound was more in line with contemporaries like Tracy Lawrence and Joe Diffie.

While never a regular contender for country music awards, he was a radio mainstay with at least three hits each year from 1991 to 1998. Chestnutt has continued to record and tour in the 20 years since.

Chesnutt has been married to wife Tracie since 1992. They have three kids.
