THE WORD ALIVE Robbed Of $10,000 In Belongings

"About $10k of a loss. The fact that it happens nonstop to artists trying to bring positivity city to city is so fucked."

THE WORD ALIVE

The Word Alive were wrapping up their tour on March 3 in Sacramento, CA when they were robbed of $10,000 in belongings. Vocalist Telle Smith said the band did not lose any musical gear, just that the band "were broken into and robbed last night." Regardless, this completely and totally sucks for the band.

"We were broken into and robbed last night, it feels so shitty to be almost home from an amazing tour and to end on such a horrible note :( About $10k of a loss. The fact that it happens nonstop to artists trying to bring positivity city to city is so fucked.”

"To everyone writing us, thank you so much for your kindness & positive energy. We’re going through the proper authorities/insurance channels to see what is recoverable/covered. Thankfully no musical gear was stolen like last time. We’re all ok & healthy most importantly!"

The Word Alive is not launching a fundraiser. Instead, they ask you buy their record and Smith adds that the band has a new benefit design coming.
