Forever Came Calling involved in van accident

April 7, 2016

Yesterday Forever Came Calling were involved in a van accident, in which their van was hit by a semi-truck and likely totaled. The band have launched a GoFundMe in order to help with repairs in order to continue their tour dates with Man Overboard. You can learn more and donate to their campaign here, and check out their statement on this situation and tour dates below.

After finishing up a great tour with Major League and Sudden Suspension, early yesterday morning our van was struck by a semi truck while it was parked in St. Louis. The truck dragged the van up the street before stopping, ripping apart the front end and warping the front axle. Thankfully, no one was in the van and no one was hurt in the accident. Unfortunately, the van is most likely totalled. Although the van was insured, that will not cover the cost to rent a vehicle to start and finish our run with Man Overboard or to purchase a vehicle for future touring. We do everything we can to be a self sufficient unit, but this accident caught us by complete surprise. Making this tour happen pushed the band to our personal financial limits. That's why we’d like to ask for your help. Any size donation helps and will go straight to helping us finish our current tour and staying on the road in the future.

Thank you everyone.
