According to Dirty Projectors' promoter, the band was involved in a van accident and has consequenltly cancelled this week's shows in Toronto and Montreal. Contrary to early reports, no member is "in serious condition." According to their publicist:

Dirty Projectors' van flipped outside of Detroit, MI on their way up to Toronto. Although the crash was serious, we're happy to report that all members of the band have been safely discharged from the hospital. The band will be flying home to New York in the morning to regroup and rest. Unfortunately, the band will have to cancel Toronto and Montreal.
