Carousel Flip Van in Wyoming

Pittsburgh heavy rockers Carousel wrapped up their string of West Coast dates a few days earlier than expected. The four-piece, who released their second album through Tee Pee Records2113 (review here), this fall, were driving through Wyoming when they were involved in an accident and rolled their van. All parties — the lineup of guitarist/vocalist Dave Wheeler, guitarist Matt Goldsborough, bassist Jim Wilson and drummer John Dziuban — are fine, and they played a return-home show last night, so I guess they mean it when they say they’re unscathed, but they took a financial hit and have asked fans to help out by picking up a record or some other merchandise.

Carousel recently parted ways with drummer Jake Leger (also of Bang) and brought in Dziuban (Sistered) to fill the role. Aside from Vultures of Volume II (review here) in Maryland, the band also took part in Tee Pee‘s Cosmic Sonic Rendezvous in Brooklyn at the end of the summer, and will reportedly look to build more momentum touring in the New Year.

Gotta get their van rightside up first. Here’s word:

Hello friends and fans… We’ve had some of our best shows ever on this tour but as a result of a number of unfortunate events we find ourselves in a crappy position. Due to weather and mechanical problems we missed a lot of shows and guarantees. Yesterday we flipped our van on the Wyoming interstate. Gratefully, we all walked away from the accident. We are renting a van in Casper and will be back in the burgh in a few days. To put it mildly, the missed guarantees and unexpected expenses have put us in a financial pinch.

I am posting a link to our band camp and big cartel pages here. If you have ever considered purchasing Merch or downloading our music, there is no time like the present. Thank you all for your love and support. We’ll be back out there in two shakes of a lamb’s tail. Xoxo – Dave
