Tributes have been paid to Jason Slater, the original bassist in rock band Third Eye Blind, who has died at the age of 49.
His daughter Alyssa confirmed that Slater died from liver failure at a hospital in Maui, as TMZ reports.
Jason Slater, who was also a frequent producer for Queensrÿche, was the band’s original bassist and back-up vocalist but did not appear on any of the band’s album. He was a member from 1993 to 1994 and recording their first demo.
He left the group before they achieved major success with their 1997 self-titled debut – which went on to become six-times platinum.
