Glass Animals drummer Joe Seaward is recovering after being "hit by a truck while on his bike"

Glass Animals drummer Joe Seaward has taken a ‘bit of a knock’ while out on his bike, according to the band.

“Miraculously and thankfully,” it continues, “he is alive. After a couple long operations he is now on the road to recovery.

The news comes after the immediate cancellation of three festival shows last week, presumably after the incident occured. At the time, the band wrote: “We wouldn’t do this lightly but unfortunately some things have happened in the last couple of days that are out of our control,” they explain.
