Country singer Jason “Sundance” Head, known for winning season 11 of The Voice in 2016, was involved in a shooting accident on his Texas ranch on November 15, 2024. While retrieving his .22 caliber firearm from his vehicle, the gun accidentally discharged, resulting in a gunshot wound to his abdomen.
At the time of the incident, Head was alone and without his phone. He managed to reach a main road where he flagged down a passing motorist for assistance. Emergency services were contacted, and he was subsequently airlifted to a hospital in Tyler, Texas.
Following treatment, Head was released from the hospital and is now recovering at home. Misty shared a photo of his bloodstained shirt on social media, underscoring the seriousness of the incident and their relief at his fortunate outcome.
Sundance Head first gained national attention as a semi-finalist on American Idol in 2007 before achieving victory on The Voice. He has since released multiple albums and is known for his soulful country performances. The incident has raised concerns about his upcoming performances scheduled for December, though no official announcements have been made regarding potential cancellations.
