(CelebrityAccess) – Sacramento rock band Dance Gavin Dance announced via social media their longtime bassist, Tim Feerick, died suddenly on Wednesday (April 13). He was 34 years old. The cause of death was not disclosed.

Dance Gavin Dance was formed in 2005, with Feerick joining the band on tour in 2009. He became an official member in 2013, appearing on five albums with the band, beginning with 2013’s Acceptance Speech and concluding with the upcoming as of yet untitled album that guitarist Will Swan said was recorded during the summer of 2021.
