Falling In Reverse frontman Ronnie Radke announced tragic news for the band and their fans overnight on Twitter. Guitarist Derek Jones has passed at the age of 35. Radke did not offer an official cause of death.
“I’ll never forget when you picked me up from jail in your old tour van to start Falling in Reverse. Your spirit will be interwoven through the music I write forever. Rest in peace Derek Jones. My heart is broken,” the singer wrote in tribute.
Jones joined Radke to form Falling In Reverse back in 2010 and remained the only constant member of the band throughout a number of line up changes, appearing on all four of the band's releases.
Their latest, 2017's Coming Home, features the Billboard Mainstream Rock Top 5 hit “Popular Monster.”
