The drummer is known to be very private and, in recent years, has largely avoided red carpets and media appearances.<\/p>\n Frontman Matthew Ramsey addressed this last week, noting that his longtime friend struggles with \u201ccrippling social anxiety,\u201d which is why Sellers often stays out of the spotlight.<\/p>\n “We had to come up with a new agreement within the band with him so that he could opt out of that stuff,” he told Bobby Bones<\/a>.<\/p>\n This isn\u2019t the first time Old Dominion have faced setbacks due to injuries. In 2023, Ramsey\u00a0broke his pelvis<\/a> in an ATV accident,\u00a0which affected the group\u2019s touring schedule. In 2021, he fell off a ladder at home while changing a light bulb, breaking a rib and\u00a0collapsing a lung.<\/p>\n Old Dominion\u2019s next scheduled shows are a three-night run in Washington from Sept. 25\u201327. After that, they\u2019re set to spend the second half of October touring Europe.<\/p>\n\n
