All have since been released, and the singer plans to resume his tour schedule next week, with the following listed date on his website April 28th, when he will play the Main Stage at Stagecoach festival in Indio, California.

Drake posted to Instagram last night (4/17), along with an image of himself and his band outside of a private plane, "Happy to report that we're all upright and heading home. We got in quite the fender bender on the way to @twostepinn, but we're all on the mend. We really appreciate all the love and well wishes. A special thank you to Mark Bogart with @mbranchkingblinds, who got the boys back to Nashville safely. Another big thank you to the fine folks with the Two Step Inn festival, who immediately sent a truck to us to put all of our gear in. Lots to be grateful for! We're gonna rest up; see y'all at @stagecoach real soon!"
