Founding Firehouse singer CJ Snare died Friday night at age 64 of unspecified causes.
"It is with great sorrow we are letting the world know we have lost our brother: CJ Snare, the rock and roll warrior, lead vocalist, and a founding member of Firehouse," the band wrote on their Facebook page. "CJ snare passed unexpectedly at home Friday night, April 5, 2024. He was a young 64 years old. ... We are all in complete shock with CJ's untimely passing."
Snare co-founded Firehouse in the late '80s, and remained in the group alongside guitarist Bill Leverty and drummer Michael Foster for nearly four decades. He co-wrote all three of the band's top 20 hits: 1991's "Don't Treat Me Bad" and "Love of a Lifetime" and 1992's "When I Look Into Your Eyes."
RIP Man... While I wasn't a die hard Firehouse fan, I did appreciate your music and talents.
