"Jon Brookes, the drummer with indie band The Charlatans has died aged 44.
He had suffered a seizure on tour with the band in 2010 and had been receiving treatment for a brain tumour.
Brookes had undergone several operations, but had still been working on new material with the band over the summer. He died in hospital on Tuesday morning with his family at his bedside.
Charlatans frontman Tim Burgess tweeted that the band was "torn apart" at the news and sent love to Brookes's family.
"Jon Brookes, my friend, our drummer and inspiration to so many, passed away this morning. We are torn apart. Love & thoughts to Jon's family," he said."
