Mark Ronson, the talented DJ and music producer, faced a tough situation recently when he injured himself during a DJ set. The 49-year-old musician shared that he ended up in the hospital after he pulled two bicep tendons. Ronson took to Instagram to explain what happened, humorously recounting how he tried to adjust a heavy stage monitor with one hand while mixing music for the audience. He noted, “Turns out they weigh more than I thought…Two popped bicep tendons and one finished gig later, here we are, baby!”
In a light-hearted tone, he added the hashtag “torn this way,” referencing his well-known collaboration with Lady Gaga. To keep his fans updated, Ronson also shared a photo from his hospital bed, giving a thumbs up to show that he was in good spirits despite the injury.
Friends and fans quickly rallied around the musician in the comments section, sharing their support and well wishes. Chelsea Handler commented with a playful “Whoopsie doodle,” while fellow DJ Jesse Marco revealed that he had experienced a similar injury a couple of years back, wishing Ronson a speedy recovery.
Despite his recent setback, Ronson has been busy. Just last week, he performed an impressive five-hour DJ set in New York City that was filled with ’90s R&B, disco, and more, coinciding with the announcement of his upcoming memoir, “Night People: How To Be A DJ in ‘90s NYC.” The book is set to be released this September and promises to explore his experiences in the music scene, including the highs and lows of DJing, the nightlife of New York, and the colorful characters he encountered along the way.
This memoir is not just a reflection of Ronson’s career but also a tribute to the city that shaped him into the artist he is today. In a vibrant social media update, he expressed gratitude for the energy of the night, saying, “Five hour vinyl set. Just like I used to… Been an exciting week announcing the new book. Thank you NY as always.” The event was lively, with footage shared online, including moments that showcased him mingling with celebrities like Jimmy Fallon, who was seen making lighthearted faces for the camera.
On a personal note, Ronson and his wife, Grace Gummer, celebrated a special milestone earlier this year when they welcomed their second daughter into the world, joining their older daughter Ruthie. The couple, who began dating in 2020 and married a year later, have embraced parenthood and continue to support each other’s careers, balancing family life with their demanding schedules.
With an impressive background, including multiple Grammy Awards under his belt, Ronson continues to be a dynamic figure in the music industry. His ability to connect with audiences and adapt to changing times shows his enduring influence. Even through challenges like his recent injury, Ronson remains dedicated to his craft and looks forward to sharing his journey with his fans in the pages of his upcoming memoir.
As he recovers, it’s evident that Ronson’s passion for music and creativity will keep him moving forward, reminding us all of the resilience needed in the pursuit of our dreams. Whether on stage or at home, the spirit of music continues to guide him.
