The band announced Jazz’s passing in a Facebook post on Saturday. The singer, born Maxwell Fraser, was 65 years old. He died peacefully in his sleep on Friday night, according to Faithless’ Twitter. “We are heartbroken to say Maxi Jazz died last night,” wrote the band on its verified Facebook account. “He was a man who changed our lives in so many ways. He gave proper meaning and message to our music.
To honor his life, the team will walk out to a song by Faithless on Boxing Day on Monday, according to the statement.
