Tom Leadon, a co-founding member of Tom Pettyโ€™s original band Mudcrutch, has died at the age of 70.

โ€œIt is with great sadness, but profound love and gratitude for his life, that the family of Tom Leadon Nashville, Tennessee and Gainesville, Florida, announce his passing on March 22, 2023 peacefully of natural causes,โ€ read a statement posted by his brother, Mark Leadon, on Facebook.

In a tribute post, Mudcrutch bandmate Mike Campbell said Leadon โ€œwas my deepest guitar soul brother, we spent countless hours playing acoustic guitars and teaching each other things. โ€œA kinder soul never walked the earth. I will always miss his spirit and generosity. Sleep peacefully, my old friend.โ€

In the late 1960s, Leadon formed Mudcrutch with his Gainesville, Florida neighbor, Tom Petty. With Leadon on guitar and Petty on bass, the groupโ€™s lineup was rounded out by Randall Marsh on drums and Mike Campbell on guitar.
