We love Randy

Today at 7:41pm
This past Monday evening, Randy Bewley had a heart attack while driving his
van on Barber Street in Athens, GA. He was taken to Athens Regional Medical
Center. Today, our bandmate and brother passed away at a little before 5
p.m. with his family and friends at his side. He will be missed, even as we
celebrate his life and creativity. His guitar sound was as special as he was
and always will be. Randy's guitar work defined not only a generation of
sound but Randy himself. His visual art, painting and photos, combined with
his signature sound formed a loose set of boundaries that helps understand
him. His quiet devotion to family and friends will become a benchmark for
those he leaves behind.
