Mark Ronson suffers stage injury during DJ set, recovery could delay career and memoir promotion

Award-winning music producer and DJ Mark Ronson may be off the decks for a while after suffering a significant on-stage injury. The 49-year-old was hospitalized after tearing both bicep tendons while attempting to move a heavy stage monitor during a live set.

The announcement quickly drew attention online, with fans and fellow musicians flooding the comments with well-wishes and jokes. A source told RadarOnline the injury is “serious” and that recovery could take months, potentially putting his DJ career on hold for the foreseeable future.

The injury comes just months ahead of the September release of his memoir, Night People: How To Be A DJ in ‘90s NYC, which he describes as a love letter to the early days of his career and New York’s nightlife scene. “This book is my love letter to a vanished era that shaped not just my career but my identity,” he said in a preview.

Ronson, one of the industry’s most prolific producers, has worked with artists like Amy Winehouse, Adele, and Bruno Mars. He and Gummer, who announced they were expecting their second child in December 2024, shared the news during a holiday party in New York hosted by Justin Theroux.
