Justin Cary, the bassist for the alt-pop band Sixpence None the Richer, dies at 50 after suffering a stroke, multiple outlets report. According to reports, Cary experienced a serious stroke the previous week and later underwent two surgeries in the days that followed. News of his condition is initially shared publicly by band-related sources, including a social media post by fellow band member Leigh Nash that also directed fans to a GoFundMe set up to support Cary and his wife Linda. Linda later provides an update saying Cary passes away. The Independent and Stereogum both report that Cary dies “peacefully,” with his wife beside him, while other coverage notes the stroke occurred around Thursday. The available reports do not provide further medical detail beyond the stroke, the surgeries, and the timing of updates from Cary’s family and band.
