Founding member of No Doubt has passed.
American Songwriter - Original No Doubt Member Dies in Motorcycle Crash, Was 57
It’s a sad day for fans of ska-dance outfit No Doubt. According to reports, Gabriel ‘The Gun’ Gonzalez has passed away at the age of 57. He was the original trumpet player for No Doubt, and is also well-known and loved for his contributions to the California bands The Untouchables and Save Ferris.
The announcement comes from a family representative who confirmed the death of Gonzalez to SPIN Magazine. According to the rep, Gonzalez passed away on September 12 in a motorcycle accident near Hermosa Beach, California. Further details on his death have not been released to the public.
It’s a heartbreaking and unexpected death, especially because Gonzalez had been giving interviews just a few months earlier. Back in January, he spoke to SPIN about the death of his fellow No Doubt bandmate John Spense, as well as the origins of the band itself.
“We all kind of knew that we were creating something different, and being in the mod-ska scene in the early mid-’80s was a pretty spectacular thing,” Gonzalez had said fondly of No Doubt.Infinity Art Glass - Fantastic local artist and Shocker fan
