This afternoon, Fattback’s guitarist/vocalist Dave Hagerty passed away after being involved in a hit-and-run car accident on Sunday morning at the intersection of Kingshighway and Manchester. He was with his girlfriend at the time of the accident, who suffered a broken arm and is currently in stable condition with a few minor injuries.
In addition to being the voice of Fattback, a reputable St. Louis band that released their EP EEE PEE last weekend, Hagerty was also a co-host of open-mic Monday’s at Venice Café. Tonight at 9 PM, Venice Café will be hosting a memorial in remembrance and honor of Dave Hagerty.
Our thoughts are with Hagerty’s family and friends during this tragic time.
