In Memoriam: Elijah Nelson
Sad news to report today: Elijah Nelson of Seattle death metal band Black Breath has passed away of undisclosed causes. He was 40 years old.
Nelson co-founded Black Breath in 2005 in Bellingham, Washington. The band recorded three albums on Southern Lord Records. Swedish metal band Nasum posted a tribute to Nelson on Facebook calling Nelson the “Cliff Burton of death metal and he will be missed.”
Our thoughts are with the family and friends of Elijah Nelson.
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
