Just a year and a half after coming to life and 3 months after releasing their self-titled debut EP, a terrible tragedy happened to the US indie rock/wave sextet Ra Ra Riot.
Yesterday afternoon (June 3), 23-year-old drummer John Pike (on the photo) was found dead in seven feet of water in Buzzards Bay near Massachusetts.
John went missing after leaving a party in the early hours of Saturday morning. His cell phone was later found in shallow water on a beach about half a mile from the house where the party took place, and the body was found about 200 yards from where the phone was discovered.
Rest in peace.
