Outline In Color Launch GoFundMe After Touring Van & Personal Items Lost In Fire

Outline In Color are seeking any financial help you can muster after their touring van caught fire while returning home from some shows yesterday, March 26th. No one was hurt in the incident. Local news outlet KOCO 5 reported on the matter, which took place near Oklahoma City, OK.

A GoFundMe has been launched on behalf of the post-hardcore band, who commented today (March 27th) of the blaze:

“Hey everyone!

Early yesterday we were driving home from a couple performances in California and Nevada. About 2:30am and about 2 hours from home we detected a burning smell. When we checked the window we realized that the passenger rear tire was on fire.

Quickly, we pulled over and funneled out into the 32 degree weather. Some of us without shoes and jackets. Within seconds the flames took off and in no more than ten minutes the van had completely become engulfed in flames. By the time the fire department arrived there was no more van to save.

Somehow the trailer was barely hit and it appears that our gear has survived, however we have all individually lost a lot of personal property. Electronics, clothes, backpacks, shoes, jackets, bedding, etc etc was all completely destroyed in the fire. Additionally all of our merch and bags are permeated with smoke. The merch is likely not sellable.

This has been a pretty tough pill to swallow with some of our biggest touring opportunities to date on the immediate horizon.

Many of you have reached out and asked how to help and also suggested we make a go fund me so we have done that! Any help whether it be in donation, spreading the word, or a kind comment is very much appreciated.

We aren’t 100% sure how we are going to rectify this situation but we are determined to not miss any dates booked this year if it is at all possible.”
