Eish. Well, at least it wasn't at age 27, which appears to be a cursed number for a lot of talented artists.

Big loss for the music industry. This lad was a bit of a legend in his own right. Very young to pass. Condolences to friends and family of the deceased.

First heard of Avicii when The Nights played on the radio. He died so young. Sometimes fame comes at a price.

RIP

RIP, from someone outside of his age range, but young enough to appreciate good music.
