Nashville rocker Will Hoge, 35, was hospitalized in critical condition today at Vanderbilt University Medical Center following an motor vehicle accident, according to the Tennessean. Hoge, who was riding a motor scooter in East Nashville, reportedly collided with a van which failed to yield. Police do not believe drugs or alcohol were a factor in the accident. A rep from the hospital said while the musician's condition is critical at the moment, he is expected to make a full recovery. Hoge is one of Nashville’s most accomplished rock performers, having successfully moved from a promising major-label run in the early part of the decade to a thriving career as a hard-touring, do-it-yourself musician. His most recent album, last year’s Draw the Curtains, was his first for indie label Rykodisc, and marked his return to label affiliation. Hoge is currently working on a follow up to Draw the Curtains.
