Singer-guitarist John Flansburgh of They Might Be Giants is recovering after being seriously injured in a car crash in New York City.
John Flansburgh of They Might Be Giants performs at Iron City on January 30, 2018 in Birmingham, Alabama. They Might Be Giants singer-guitarist John Flansburgh was seriously injured in a car crash this week while being driven home from the alternative rock band's first gig on a pandemic-delayed tour, prompting the postponement of shows at least until late August.
According to police, the driver who was arrested ran a red light, jumped a curb and plowed into the gate of a housing complex, hitting two cars along the way. Everyone in all three cars were taken to hospitals, police said. Flansburgh, 62, wrote that he suffered seven broken ribs, some of them fractured in multiple places.
"It was so wonderful to finally be back up on stage and playing for all of you again," Lindell wrote to fans in a message announcing that the remaining June dates are postponed. The band hopes to resume the tour Aug. 30 in Asbury Park, New Jersey, he said.
