Dear Beat fans,

It was with deep sadness that we recently announced the passing of our friend and brother, and foundational member of The Beat, drummer Everett Morton.

We are deeply sad to announce we have lost another friend & brother today, Everett Morton. Everett was a humble & gentle man in life, but a dynamo on the drums. He was the beat of The Beat. We feel his loss tremendously. Our deepest condolence to his family. #RIPEverettMorton🕊️💔 pic.twitter.com/d99Y8NlfSM
