David Crosby (August 14, 1941 – January 19, 2023 David Crosby
(August 14, 1941 – January 19, 2023)

“Early this morning I got a text from someone in California who had heard that my old friend David Crosby had passed. I chose at the time not to believe it. There are so many lies on the internet that sometimes it is easy to dodge the truth. This time it turned out to be true.

I met David at the Offstage on First Street in San Jose, California in 1962 or ’63. He came up from Venice with Paul Kantner to play that little venue and hang out in the South Bay Folk scene for a while. He was always brash and self-confident… two qualities he never lost. He was a great artist who was always true to himself.

He was my friend and what we shared transcended the music. I will miss him!” -Jorma Kaukonen

It was just amazing. I thought she was a great entertainer and just a fun person. People loved her.” -Marty Balin

They remade their world, and pushed things to the limit. They didn't give a damn about how things were supposed to work. They indulged their desires and pursued their dreams. And they were open to the unexpected twists and turns that their lives took.” -NEUMU
