Split Lip Rayfield's Kirk Rundstrom, R.I.P.

Split Lip Rayfield and Scroat Belly singer/songwriter/guitarist Kirk Rundstrom passed away yesterday as a result of cancer. Rundstrom was diagnosed last spring but continued performing into this month. According to his website, he even has a new solo album titled Imperfect Spirals due out this year.

Wichita's Orpheum Theatre will host a memorial service for Rundstrom on February 26, and the folks at his label, Bloodshot Records, have a very nice eulogy for him at their website.

Donations to Rundstrom's family can be made through the Split Lip Rayfield website.
