Rock n' roll fans across the world are mourning the loss of Brett Tuggle, best known for being a keyboardist in the legendary rock group, Fleetwood Mac.
The sad news was confirmed to Rolling Stone magazine by Brett's son, Matt Tuggle, who told fans his father died this past Father's Day Sunday.
There is no denying Fleetwood Mac's influence on pop culture, with the band gaining new fans every day thanks to social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram.
From performing with Rick Springfield in the '80s to joining David Lee Roth on tour from 1986 to 1994, Brett was passionate about music.
He joined Fleetwood Mac in 1997, during their reunion era, and tour with them for over two decades until 2018.
As reported by Page Six, Brett revealed that his firing was due to lead singer Stevie Nicks thinking he was too close to former guitarist Lindsey Buckingham.
“I said, ‘You know, Stevie, I love playing with you. I support you. But Lindsey doesn’t have a band.’ She said, ‘I know he needs good people.'”
"But think in the end, she looked at me a little as abandoning her and going over to Lindsey’s camp."
It's clear Brett's talents were desired by many, including some of the best musicians in the world!
“He was loved by his family so much,” Matt told the outlet. “His family was with him throughout the entire time of his illness. He was a lovely father. He gave me music in my life.”
Our thoughts are with Brett's loved ones during this difficult time.
