Dave Matthews Band Saxophonist, Dead at 46

Saxophone player LeRoi Moore, of the Dave Matthews Band died this evening at the young age of 46 after complications from a now-fatal ATV accident almost two months ago. In the accident outside of the band’s native Charlottesville, VA, Moore suffered a punctured lung and broken ribs, but he’d recently returned to supervised treatment after experiencing what doctors are calling “sudden complications”
The band was still scheduled to play Tuesday night at LA’s Staples Center, according to the band’s website. Béla Fleck and the Flecktones saxophonist Jeff Coffin has been filling in for the fallen musician since the accident.
Thoughts and prayers from the BSC family go out to Moore’s family and friends.
