Drummer Scott Asheton, one of the original members of the Stooges, died, according to reports. The cause of death wasn’t immediately made public. He was 64.
Iggy Pop posted this statement on Facebook:
“My dear friend Scott Asheton passed away last night.
Scott was a great artist, I have never heard anyone play the drums with more meaning than Scott Asheton. He was like my brother. He and Ron have left a huge legacy to the world. The Asheton’s have always been and continue to be a second family to me.
My thoughts are with his sister Kathy, his wife Liz and his daughter Leanna, who was the light of his life.”
Asheton’s brother Ron, guitarist for the Stooges, died in 2009. Scott Asheton continued playing with Iggy (performing as the reunited Stooges) after his brother’s death.
