Kyle Hoover, previous guitar player for Tiaras, Ganglians, Part Human, Fine Steps and more, has just passed away. The news came from Mtn.St.Mtn, an indie record label who released Tiaras’ self-titled debut in 2015. They write, “He was a gem of a human, always had an hilarious story to tell, was loved dearly and will be sorely missed. Rest well buddy.”

I saw Kyle Hoover first perform in Ganglians. He was so much fun to watch. When I got the chance to have him play an in-studio with Tiaras at CapRadio a few years later, I found him to be a warm, funny charmer. He left an indelible mark on the music scene here. pic.twitter.com/68iijD97rB
