American singer-songwriter Chris Daughtry has postponed several of his upcoming tour dates following the sudden death of his stepdaughter Hannah. The 41-year-old singer was in the midst of his Dearly Beloved tour, but flew back to Nashville to be with his family after receiving the news.

The Daughtry band released its first album in November 2006, following the singer taking fourth place on American Idol's sixth season. Since then, Chris Daughtry has been nominated for four Grammys.
