According to Atlanta police, the driver of a BMW failed to yield while making a turn at the intersection of Memorial Drive and Boulevard Wednesday (Aug. 20) night, striking the Harley-Davidson that Hinds was riding. Officers responded to the scene at about 11:35 p.m., where medical officials pronounced the progressive metal legend dead. The Fulton County medical examiner’s office later confirmed Hinds’ death.
A post on Hinds’ official Instagram account confirmed his death, while simultaneously announcing the cancellation of an Aug. 30 masterclass the Alabama-born musician was scheduled to give on Aug. 30. “Your reservations will be refunded at the point of purchase,” the post read.
Mourning their longtime guitarist in a Thursday (Aug. 21) Facebook post, Brent Hinds’ former Mastodon bandmates described feeling “unfathomable sadness and grief.”
“We are heartbroken, shocked, and still trying to process the loss of this creative force with whom we’ve shared so many triumphs, milestones, and the creation of music that has touched the hearts of so many,” the post read. “Our hearts are with Brent’s family, friends, and fans. At this time, we please ask that you respect everyone’s privacy during this difficult time. RIP Brent.”
