The members of rock band Eagles of Death Metal, who were performing when gunmen stormed their concert venue in Paris, were able to escape unhurt in the shootings.
A series of attacks targeting young concert-goers, soccer fans and Parisians enjoying a Friday night out at popular nightspots killed at least 120 people in the deadliest violence to strike France since World War II.
The Californian group's manager said all the members escaped the theater before hostages were taken and are safe, reported NBC News.
"We are still currently trying to determine the safety and whereabouts of all our band and crew. Our thoughts are with all of the people involved in this tragic situation," the members posted on their official Facebook page after escaping the hall.
According to L A Times, two members of the band's crew are still unaccounted for.
