Trent Reznor has offered up a tribute to the late former Nine Inch Nails keyboardist James Woolley, who died earlier this month. In an official statement Reznor noted that though he hadn't remained in close contact over the years, Woolley will be missed by the NIN family.
"Terrible news regarding James. I hadn't crossed paths with him for some time, but always thought of him fondly. He was a fun character to be around, a solid musician and a genuinely good guy. Those of us from that era of the band have been sharing 'James' stories . . . lots of laughs and love and sadness. Wishing his family the very best."
He is survived by his ex-wife Kate Van Buren and three kids. Van Buren also released a brief statement confirming news of his death, writing, "I wanted our friends to know. Please keep the Woolley family and all his loved ones in your prayers."
