DAVID OLNEY, 71
Died January 18, 2020
Americana singer. Wrote songs recorded by Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris. Recorded over 20 albums over his five-decade career. His songs have been covered by many artists including the above two and Steve Earle. He died on stage while in the middle of a song.
Listening to him right now on You Tube. Quite a talent. I wish I'd known of him before he died.
I saw one comment on one of his songs which called him "The Father of Americana Music.'
