A lot of people in the industry and fans of Wilco were shocked to hear that ex-band member Jay Bennett has died at the age of 45.
This comes right on the heels of Bennett saying he was going to sue Jeff Tweedy over past royalties.
Tweedy responded the next day saying that he shouldn't owe Bennett anything. Tweedy has released a statement this morning saying he was "deeply saddened" by the news and that Bennett made "significant contributions" to the band from 1994-2001.
Bennett was only 45 years old. The cause of death is not known as of now.
