Star of 90s Pop-Rock Band Dies After Slipping in the Shower
One of the founding member of Train, the 90s pop-rock band behind hits like “Drops of Jupiter” and “Hey, Soul Sister,” has died after slipping in the shower, his mother said.
Charlie Colin, 58, had moved to Belgium recently to teach music and was house-sitting for friends in Brussels when tragedy struck, TMZ reported. He fell in the shower but no one realized until the friends arrived home five days ago to find his body, Colin’s mom told the outlet.
Colin, a bassist, was invited to form Train in San Francisco in the 1990s by and old friend, Rob Hotchkiss, and singer Pat Monahan. Guitarist Jimmy Stafford, who had formed the short-lived band Apostles with Colin and Hotchkiss, joined along with Scott Underwood.
