Cancellation comes on the heels of cancellations by Klaxons and Gorillaz Sound System in wake of Gaza flotilla raid.
It was announced on Sunday by the organizers of the festival that the veteran American rock band Pixies canceled their upcoming concert in Israel.
This announcement follows recent concert cancellations by the Klaxons and the Gorillaz Sound System in the wake of Israel's attack on the Gaza Aid Flotilla in which 9 aid workers were killed.
According to organizers, ticket holders will be able to receive a refund at ticket sales counters starting Monday, June 7 at 9 a.m.
Other performers, such as Elton John and Rod Stewart, are still planning to play Israel this summer. Our open letter to Elton John remains unanswered.
