Country artist Colt Ford suffered a heart attack after a Thursday night performance at a Valley bar, according to his publicist.
The musician had finished at show at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row in downtown Gilbert before symptoms began.
He is currently under care in the intensive care unit at Banner Desert Medical Center in Mesa.
The 54-year-old star is a multi-platinum singer-songwriter hailing from Athens, Georgia. Along with several No. 1 hits, he originally recorded Jason Aldean’s “Dirt Road Anthem,” which has garnered over 927 million worldwide streams.
