Mitch Mitchell, a pioneering drummer best known for his work with 1960s rock icon Jimi Hendrix, died on Wednesday, at age 62. Mitchell was found dead in his Portland, Oregon, hotel room. A Multnomah County coroner’s spokesman said it appeared he died of natural causes, although a formal finding had not yet been issued. The drummer had been in Portland for the last stop on an 18-city U.S. tour with Experience Hendrix, a concert series celebrating the legacy of the late rock star.
