Wade Bowen and his band are counting their blessings after a very scary incident over the weekend. The singer and his crew were leaving Austin, Texas, and heading to Lubbock when a car crashed into them. Their trailer and bus sustained heavy damage, but, thankfully, no one was hurt. In fact, they were still able to play their next gig as planned. “Everyone came together and figured out how to make to make it to our next show and pull off a magical night. In spite of everything, we had one of my favorite shows ever,” Bowen said in a post detailing the accident. The Texas native also took time to thank the first responders, tow truck drivers and everyone who came to their rescue. Wade and his crew feel very lucky.
