The singer-songwriter who co-founded both the Byrds and Crosby, Stills & Nash, was making new music almost to the very end.

Now Crosby, a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as part of both the Byrds and Crosby, Stills & Nash, is gone, according to a statement from his wife Jan on Thursday afternoon. “It is with a deep and profound sadness that I learned that my friend David Crosby has passed,” wrote Graham Nash, who cofounded Crosby, Stills & Nash with Crosby and Stephen Stills, on Facebook.
“I am grieving the loss of my friend and Bailey’s biological father, David,” Etheridge wrote. “He gave me the gift of family. I will forever be grateful to him, Django, and Jan. His music and legacy will inspire many generations to come. A true treasure.” Crosby quickly became a key voice in the Byrds music, though what he had to say outside the music often rubbed his bandmates the wrong way. During sessions for the Byrds’ fifth album, “The Notorious Byrd Brothers,” he was often arguing over which songs to include.
Here Crosby had even more success as the band, which made a splash at Woodstock in 1969, found critical and commercial success, with Crosby’s contributions including such songs as “Guinevere,” “Almost Cut My Hair,” and “Wooden Ships.”
