Sad news to report as Falling in Reverse guitarist Derek Jones has died at the age of 35, confirms lead vocalist Ronnie Radke.
In a tweet this evening, Radke wrote:
I’ll never forget when you picked me up from jail In Your old tour van to start falling in reverse. Your spirit will be interwoven through the music I write forever. Rest In Peace Derek Jones. My heart is broken.
