Old Dominion's Matthew Ramsey Shares Health Update After ATV Accident

Old Dominion singer-guitarist Matthew Ramsey has shared a health update, following his ATV accident earlier this year. Speaking to ET, Ramsey said, "Yeah, I'm standing," then quipping that he'll "never been 100 percent" due to being accident prone. "I'm still doing some physical therapy, yeah. [But] getting better every day," he went on to say.

"I'll tell you the fun part about all these accidents that he has is every time, there's always some sort of new physical therapy device that shows up," Ramsey's bandmate, Geoff Sprung, added with a laugh. "And then we all get to try it." Ramsey then joked, "Everybody gets to use it." Ramsey's health update comes months after Old Dominion had to cancel some shows after Ramsey was injured in an ATV crash.

In a statement shared to the band's Instagram account, the 45-year-old singer explained the situation, and clarified that doctors expect him to "heal just fine." He also stated that he hopes to be back on his feet and touring again soon, after fracturing his pelvis in three places. "Well friends – I'm afraid I have some disappointing news. I was in an ATV accident that has left my pelvis fractured in three places. The good news is it's gonna heal just fine. The bad news is I'm gonna have to stay home and recover for a little while," Ramsey said. 

"I know we all had plans to sing and dance together in Key West. I was looking forward to that so much! We will make it up to you," he added, "I promise we'll keep up updated on my recovery and any other shows that might be affected. This tour has been such a blast so far this year and before you know it, I'll be back out there with No Bad Vibes! Love you all. – m"
