Paul Klein, the lead singer of indie pop band LANY, is on the mend after a car accident sent him to the hospital last Thursday.
On Tuesday, the 36-year-old singer posted photos of his hospital recovery on social media, revealing that he was hit by a car while driving a Vespa on his way home from the gym on June 6. He doesn’t “really remember anything after the collision” but does recall waking up “on a stretcher being put into an ambulance.”
“I’ve cried a lot of thankful and happy tears during the last few days,” Klein wrote. “I know how fortunate I am to still be here. All of my vitals are good, but walking and moving around is still a challenge. I’m getting progressively better though and will be at 100% really soon.”
Due to his recovery process, the band has had to postpone their upcoming Australia and New Zealand tour dates. But Klein assured fans he would be back on stage as soon as possible.
“This experience has only intensified the feelings of purpose I have, so I can’t wait to heal up and get back to it,” he said.
