SALEM, OR -- Oregon State Police are reporting that Grammy award-winning band, The Wallflowers, have died after falling off the face of the Earth.
The Wallflowers was led by singer/songwriter Jakob Dylan -- youngest son of Bob Dylan. The band rose to fame when its second album, 1996's Bringing Down The Horse, topped the charts -- largely due to the hit song "One Headlight." They released three subsequent albums between 2000 - 2005 but failed to recreate its earlier success.
The band's management issued a statement this morning: "We are sad to report that last night, after a rousing performance at the Spirit Mountain Casino in Grand Ronde, OR, the Wallflowers sadly dropped off the face of the Earth."
The band was on its way to play a Sunday night show at Jerry's Bar & Grill in Wichita, KS.
A similar tragedy befell "Torn" singer, Natalie Imbruglia, in 2004.

I saw The Wallflowers in concert back around 1996 or 1997 I think. Guess where? My hometown, Wichita Kansas.
