AUSTIN, Texas — Austin-based country band Shane Smith & the Saints' tour bus caught fire on Thursday afternoon as they were traveling from Austin to Lubbock, Texas, to perform a concert.
Jeb Hurt from the band's talent agency, RED11 Music, told KVUE everyone was able to make it off the bus and there were no injuries. Hurt said the bus and all its contents are a total loss.

Hurt said that the band was able to find other transportation to Lubbock and is currently on its way to the venue for the performance. He said, at this point, the band plans on performing at all of its concerts this weekend and that they're at the last leg of their tour.
Other than their show in Lubbock, the band has two more shows this weekend; one in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on Friday and the other in Wichita, Kansas, on Saturday.
A verified GoFundMe page has been set up to help support the band.
The band was on their way to play at Cook's Garage in Lubbock, which donated 100% of their door proceeds to help the group.
