ZZ Top’s Dusty Hill Dead at the Age Of 72
“We are saddened by the news today that our Compadre, Dusty Hill, has passed away in his sleep at home in Houston, TX,” the surviving ZZ Top members write. “We, along with legions of ZZ Top fans around the world, will miss your steadfast presence, your good nature and enduring commitment to providing that monumental bottom to the ‘Top’. We will forever be connected to that “Blues Shuffle in C. You will be missed greatly, amigo.”

After sharing the sad news about legendary bassist Dusty Hill, ZZ Top decided to cancel all their upcoming shows. This June, ZZ Top announced a 75 date massive tour, kicking off this month. Dusty Hill wasn’t on stage for the first event due to a hip injury. This was supposed to be a “short detour” as they’ve said. Currently, there isn’t any information if ZZ Top will continue their mega tour with a stand-in bassist or if they’ll cancel the tour entirely. We will be sharing any updates about it.
