DETROITER GLENN FREY OF THE EAGLES HAS DIED

 11/06/48 - 01/18/16

Our most sincere condolences to the family & friends of Glenn Frey.

 Eagles founder Glenn Frey has died.The band posted a statement on its Facebook page, listing “complications from rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative colitis and pneumonia” as the causes of death.

Frey had disclosed the problems back in November, when the band were forced to pull out of attending the Kennedy Center Honors ceremony because he required major surgery.

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our comrade, Eagles founder, Glenn Frey, in New York City on Monday, January 18th, 2016.

Glenn fought a courageous battle for the past several weeks but, sadly, succumbed to complications from Rheumatoid Arthritis, Acute Ulcerative Colitis and Pneumonia.

The Frey family would like to thank everyone who joined Glenn to fight this fight and hoped and prayed for his recovery.

Words can neither describe our sorrow, nor our love and respect for all that he has given to us, his family, the music community & millions of fans worldwide.

“It’s Your World Now”
Written by Glenn Frey and Jack Tempchin
From the Eagles’ Long Road Out of Eden album

A perfect day, the sun is sinkin’ low
As evening falls, the gentle breezes blow
The time we shared went by so fast
Just like a dream, we knew it couldn’t last
But I’d do it all again
If I could, somehow
But I must be leavin’ soon
It’s your world now

It’s your world now
My race is run
I’m moving on
Like the setting sun
No sad goodbyes
No tears allowed
You’ll be alright
It’s your world now

Even when we are apart
You’ll always be in my heart
When dark clouds appear in the sky
Remember true love never dies

But first a kiss, one glass of wine
Just one more dance while there’s still time
My one last wish: someday, you’ll see
How hard I tried and how much you meant to me

It’s your world now
Use well your time
Be part of something good
Leave something good behind
The curtain falls
I take my bow
That’s how it’s meant to be
It’s your world now
It’s your world now
It’s your world now

Yosemight based in Cleveland, Ohio formed in 2012. Mixing elements of funk, rock, bluegrass, reggae, and Latin. The lineup: Luke Bergan (Guitar and Vocals) Nick Shaver (Bass and Vocals) Tony Kazel (Drums). They often include a killer horn section and kick ass keyboards too.


Had the pleasure of listening to a band that was a bit of a surprise to me. they hail from Cleveland, Ohio, and they were refreshing to hear. Great musicians who take the gig seriously and really know how to play. Yosemight, a funk jam band, more in the progressive vein, had just finished playing a regional tour when I first met them.

The audience fell madly in love with them, and after seeing them, I heard why.



Yosemight is a 3 piece band with horns/keyboards, these men meant serious business when it came to their sound, and I mean serious. Every aspect of their presentation was aimed for providing the best sound possible.

A seriously energized  show, that got the crowd dancing.. boy can these guys play.


They are remarkably down to earth when off stage, connecting with fans... no easy feat after they just finished electrifying the audience.



Yosemight is a band I highly recommend checking out. They have an EP out,  and is a group I foresee having a bright future. Glad my friend suggested listening to this band, and Detroit, you will love these guys.

In the mean time, I'm going to keep making love to my eardrums. Thank you, and I welcome you to the music mecca that is Detroit. Make yourselves, and your sound, at home here. Deondre Charelle
