Los Angeles, May 2 (IANS): Grammy Award-winning singer Sam Smith, who was forced to cancel his Australian tour due to vocal exhaustion, is on the road to recovery and says he is much better.

Smith took to image-sharing website Instagram on Friday to let everyone know about the news, reports people.com.

"Just to let all my beautiful fans know, I'm ok, I am insanely relaxed and am somewhere in the middle of Australia with no phone, no laptop and I haven't spoken a word in three days," he wrote.

The 22-year-old British singer had been instructed by doctors to rest his voice after suffering a small hemorrhage on his vocal cords.

"Trying my absolute best to be back on my feet and singing for next week," the Grammy-winner said.

"So amazing to have this time to turn off, but it does make me realise how much I love what I do, and how much I miss you all when I'm not on stage. I hope you are all happy and healthy wherever you are. I'm gonna go back to my black and white movies and pretend I'm Judy Garland for a few more days," he added.
