Amanda Shires had several items stolen from her touring van last night while she was onstage at Chicago’s City Winery, the singer-songwriter revealed in a series of tweets.

Shires husband and musical collaborator Jason Isbell first announced the burglary in his own tweet, saying the van was around the intersection of Randolph and Racine and urging those in the area to be on the lookout.

According to Shires, all of her thesis writings and notes on new songs were taken (“I’m the one who doesn’t ever do a back up…”), along with various items like her laptop, ukulele, medicine, violin strings and more.
