Mike Pinder, bassist for THE MOODY Blues, died at the age of 82.
It comes months after Denny Laine, the other original bandmate who is still alive, died.
Guitarist John Lodge of the Moody Blues and Mike’s family both confirmed that the keyboardist died on Wednesday in Northern California.
In an Instagram post about Mike’s death, Laine’s wife Elizabeth shared a picture of the keyboardist playing “Go Now!” on the piano.
She wrote, “Very sad news: the last original member of the Moody Blues has died.”
“He is now reunited with Denny, Ray, Graeme and Clint; what a joyous reunion that must be.”
She left a note that said, “Rest in peace and give my Denny a hug.”
Fans expressed their sorrow in the post’s comments.
“Oh no!” wrote one person. Michael, rest in peace!”
