Pinder’s family announced his death in a statement shared with Pinder’s former Moody Blues bandmate John Lodge, noting that Pinder “passed peacefully” Wednesday “surrounded by his devoted family” at his Northern California home. No cause of death was provided.
In their tribute to the “musician, father, cosmic philosopher & friend,” Pinder’s family wrote, “His final days were filled with music, encircled by the love of his family. Michael lived his life with a childlike wonder, walking a deeply introspective path which fused the mind and the heart.”
He recited the poem "Late Lament", written by bandmate Graeme Edge and famously appended to the song "Nights in White Satin" from the Moodies' 1967 album Days of Future Passed:Mike Pinder - Wikipedia
