Cat The Dog in near-fatal car crash

Band involved in collision on way to gig

Cat The Dog dodged a near-fatal motor accident last night (November 18) while traveling to their gig in Southampton.

The band were on the way to play a gig at The Joiners when they were involved with a collision with a car behind their vehicle.

The incident caused the band's van to be flipped onto its side.

Cat The Dog, who were not wearing seatbelts, were thrown from their seats and had to escape from the van by breaking a window and climbing out.

A spokesperson for the band said: “Despite having whiplash, the band escaped relatively unscathed and were still able to play their show with Zico Chain.”
