Alice Glass, vocalist for Crystal Castles, has been injured in a car accident in Canada.

After breaking her ribs, Alice has since been discharged from hospital but has had to cancel nine shows as a result.

Band-mate Ethan says "We're on tour and it's a bit of a disaster. Alice broke her ribs in a car accident. The doctor said she needs six weeks off but she wants to start playing again next week."
