Steve Harwell, the former lead singer of US pop-rock band Smash Mouth, has died aged 56.
His death was announced by his manager Robert Hayes, who said in a statement to Rolling Stone that Harwell “passed peacefully and comfortably” with family and friends by his side. “Steve’s iconic voice is one of the most recognisable voices from his generation,” Hayes added. “He loved the fans and loved to perform … Steve lived a 100 percent full-throttle life. Burning brightly across the universe before burning out.”
