Abbotsford-native post-punk rock group You Say Party! We Say Die! suffered a huge setback when their drummer, Devon Clifford, died this morning after suffering a collapse onstage Friday evening in Vancouver.
Clifford was only 30 years old.
The quintet were set to embark on a European tour this summer to showcase their latest album XXXX, which has been garnering much critical acclaim.

I’d like to express my deepest sympathies for the remaining band members.

I’m so happy to see this Miné!!! Devon was actually a dear, dear, family friend.
Liz, I’m sorry to hear that! It’s definitely a shock for the local music community. He was a very talented musician.
