swanlund dies (August 8, 2012) |
Stuart Swanlund, guitarist for southern rock giants the Marshall Tucker Band, died in his sleep of natural causes in his Chicago home the band confirmed yesterday. He was 54. Founding member Doug Gray said, “Stuart, or ‘Stubie’ as we called him, was the longest standing member of the Marshall Tucker Band since 1985, onward. He recently took a hiatus from the road due to health problems and even with those issues, Stuart’s enthusiasm onstage never wavered. Our thoughts and prayers are with Stuart’s family and those who knew him. We have lost a great friend.”
