“Instead of checking in from the tour, I’m writing as I recover at home," DeGraw lamented in his statement. But he wants his fans to know that he's making a full recovery and he'll be back to his old form soon. "I’m feeling much better, but it will take a little bit more time to be back to 100%!"
"I’m overwhelmed with the outpouring of support from my fans, friends, and family," he added before promising to keep his devotees posted.
Following the vicious attack, a source close to DeGraw told Us Weekly, "These guys jumped him from out of nowhere. It's weird because they didn't take anything, I think they did it for sport…Gavin is shocked and his family is devastated."
