Red Hot Summer tour organisers have replaced Braithwaite with The Black Sorrows, featuring Vika and Linda Bull, which they described would be "two very special performances".
"We wish Daryl a speedy recovery and look forward to seeing him in a few weeks at Ballarat," they said on the tour's Facebook page.
"...From the RHST team and patrons alike we all wish Daryl all the very best."
Braithwaite has been hospitalised for a mysterious illness in the past, after having to cancel a Cairns gig in February last year while "stricken with something weird" in his throat.
The two Red Hot Summer shows at Mornington are sell-outs, which also feature James Reyne and Taxiride.
