Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson was injured on Tuesday evening during a performance that saw the Leeds band supporting Green Day at Madison Square Garden.
“Ricky Wilson fell jumping between the barrier and the stage, breaking a rib in the process whilst the band had been playing," a statement said.
The statement also explained how, despite the injuries, the band will fulfil the remaining dates of their American tour.
"The rest of the shows will still go ahead as they criss-cross America – Ricky's had treatment and decided the tour goes on.”
The band's summer tour will also see them play the Reading and Leeds festivals on the 28th and 30th of August respectively.
