Theron Shelton, drummer of the Philadelphia-based band, The Blue Method passed away suddenly this week and the news hit me pretty hard. I grew up with Theron’s brother and would always be amazed at how well Theron played the drums at such a young age. As he got older, he got doper, and I can honestly say he was the best drummer I have ever known. He was also a person you could genuinely not say a single bad thing about. He lived and breathed music. He was absolutely passionate about it.

A talented and brilliant musician, brother, son and much much more. Theron, you will be sorely missed.

Please be sure to check out the amazing music Theron was able to bless us with by visiting his band’s website and MySpace pages below.

Rest in peace, Theron.
