David Crosby was able to touch many lives through music. Some of music’s biggest names took to social media upon the news of the singer-songwriter’s passing at age 81.
Two of the most notable names were bandmates Stephen Stills and Graham Nash. Stills honored Crosby saying, in part, “David lived a life of deep and enduring gratitude and was an extraordinary, richly sentient being. His music will live on through us all even as he now sails to his eternal sunset.”
Nash’s tribute read, in part, “I know people tend to focus on how volatile our relationship has been at times, but what has always mattered to David and me more than anything was the pure joy of the music we created together, the sound we discovered with one another, and the deep friendship we shared over all these many long years. David was fearless in life and in music. He leaves behind a tremendous void as far as sheer personality and talent in this world.”
