Power Trip vocalist Riley Gale has passed away yesterday, August 24th. The band has not divulged any information about Gale's death yet, but has posted a statement confirming his passing.
"Dear Power Trip fans worldwide,
"It is with the greatest of sadness we must announce that our lead singer and brother Riley Gale passed away last night.
"Riley was a friend, a brother, a son. Riley was both a larger than life rock star and a humble and giving friend. He touched so many lives through his lyrics and through his huge heart. He treated everyone he met as a friend and he always took care of his friends. We will celebrate Riley’s life and never forget the great works of music, charity, and love that he left behind. You, the fans, meant so much to him, please know how special you are. If you have a memory of Riley please share it, no matter how small, as we remember him.
"Please respect our wishes for privacy during this time. In lieu of flowers please send donations to Dallas Hope Charities, the link to donate directly is here.
"Signed, – Rlley’s Loving Family
"P.S. Funeral and visitation arrangements are pending."
Power Trip were in the studio earlier this year working on the follow up to 2017's breakout Nightmare Logic. It's not been confirmed how far along the band were in the process at the time. In 2018, Power Trip released standalone single, "Hornet's Nest"
I have no words right now aside from that I wish Gale's bandmates, friends, and family all the best at this time.
