Charles Kelley, the co-lead vocalist and founding member of the country band Lady A, has been diagnosed with the rare blood cancer multiple myeloma.

The singer shared the news on his Instagram on Tuesday, with the caption “A little health update” under the video.

“Hey everybody. Just wanted to give a quick update on some health issues I’m dealing with,” Kelley said. “I had [a] couple random rib fractures that happened, which sparked my doctor into having me do several different blood tests. And one of the last blood tests we did, they found a blood cancer in there called multiple myeloma, and it’s rare.”
