Mudvayne guitarist Greg Tribbett will sit out the band’s L.D. 50 25th Anniversary tour, which kicked off on Thursday (11th), following the death of his wife, Debbie. According to a GoFundMe launched over a year ago, his wife lost her battle with angiosarcoma, a rare and aggressive cancer.
The band shared on social media earlier on Thursday (11), stating:
“Tour starts today! We are going to miss our brother Greg on this tour, sending him and his family all the love.
– Chad, Matt, Ryan, & Mudvayne crew.”
Debbie’s passing was confirmed earlier this week by the MudVayNe Mob Facebook fan page, with the following:
“With the heaviest of hearts we mourn the loss of our dearest most beautiful friend Debbie Tribbett,” the post read. “Anyone who has been here from the start of the Mob family knows she was a huge integral part of this page and the family she did take a step back once she needed to but was still watching and sharing as she always did. She was fiercely supportive of MUDVAYNE and her loving husband Greg always so proud! I thank her for bringing her love and light to so many of us who were lucky enough to connect with her. We miss you beautiful sweet friend more than words can say god bless you and may your family be blessed with strength.”
The tour runs through October 26 in Uncasville, Connecticut. We send our thoughts to Tribbett, his family, and friends during this difficult time for him and his family.
