Country singer Colt Ford has undergone shoulder surgery after being pulled through the windscreen of his tour bus by first responders following a crash. The operation, confirmed by his team as successful, comes after a difficult period for the artist, who suffered a heart attack in April 2024 that stopped his heart three times. Ford is now focusing on recovery, with several tour dates postponed or cancelled as a result.

The singer broke his shoulder in the crash, which happened en route to a show in Germany, though he and his crew escaped further serious harm. His team has cancelled or postponed shows scheduled for 19, 21, 22, 27 and 29 August across Iowa, Georgia, Tennessee and Illinois, saying his health must take priority while he rests and recuperates.
