RIP Mirek Kocandrle

Am gutted to hear this sad news of my friend yesterday:

I played with Mirek in and out of school. He gave me my first chance to play at a big venue, took me to play at the Latin Billboard awards and also helped me into the recording scene. I am so grateful for all his support and so sad to hear this news. I will never forget him and will always appreciate how much he helped me.

We also both loved football, and so we bonded on this level too. I will miss this very kind friend very much.

This is Mirek just before we played our first show together with Jen Chapin:

For all of you that knew him also, you can donate and send condolences via the link.

RIP, Mirek.
