Hawthorn Heights

On November 24th while his band was in Washington D.C's 9:30 club, the guitarist of Hawthorn Height, Casey Calvert young at 26 passed in his sleep. Reason for death is unknown. Beside being beloved by his own band, many bands showed remorse for Calvert.

"Casey was a fun guy, he was always relaxed, and had a great attitude about touring," said FOB guitarist Joe Trohman. "And he knew how to hang out. I remember that [Black Clouds and Underdogs] tour we did together in Spring 2006, and how much fun it was, and whenever the after-show hang commenced, he was always present with the lone group of us that would get together and just shoot the s--- for hours until we left whichever venue we were at that night. Definitely a really personable guy — always sweet to anyone who walked up to him and I never saw him without a smile. We'll all miss him."
