From BrooklynVegan:
The Dream is Dead guitarist Jared Southwick passed away following more than a week in a Muncie, Indiana hospital with “a liver and kidney condition (and all the complications that come with it)”. The 34 year-old guitarist was a member of Harakiri and The Dream is Dead along with bassist Jason McCash who went on to form The Gates of Slumber. The Dream is Dead’s last long-player was the Escape Artist burner Hail The New Pawn.
