Tonight in Seattle:  

Rest well, Jeff Hanson.

I just returned home from a friend's birthday party. (Happy Birthday, Flyn!) I hopped on my computer, so I could waste some time on the internet. The first thing I see when I checked my Facebook was an acquaintence's post about the incredibly untimely demise of one of my very favorite KRS artists, Jeff Hanson. From what I can gather via the few articles on the web, there is a possibility of some sort of apartment-related accident which then ended Hanson's life on June 5th. There are no words to describe how fucking saddened I am by this news.

Jeff, your 2005 self-titled release kind of saved me. Thank you.

 

 

holy shit. on a complete fluke, I shot jeff's in-studio at KEXP last year - he was such a sweet guy. what sad news.

I completely agree. "Son" (2003) was a revelation. It's so sad he's gone.
