Don Everly of the duo the Everly Brothers died at the age of 84 at his home in Nashville. His family told the Los Angeles Times through a spokesperson on Saturday that he had passed on that day. His death comes seven years after he lost his brother Phil, with whom he formed the iconic rock ‘n’ roll duo that rocketed them both to stardom. “Don lived by what he felt in his heart,” his family said in a public statement. “Don expressed his appreciation for the ability to live his dreams with his soulmate and wife, Adela, and sharing the music that made him an Everly Brother.” Before they were known as the Everly Brothers the two siblings sang in the Everly Family – a 1940s act that included them with their parents Ike and Margaret. You may know the Everly Brothers by some of their hits: “Wake Up Little Susie,” “Cathy’s Clown” and “All I Have to do is Dream.”
