Musician Charlie Colin, who was one of the founding members of the band Train, has passed away. He was 58 years old.
His mother told TMZ that he died in Brussels, Belgium, after slipping and falling in the shower while housesitting for a friend. She explained that Colin wasn't found until his friends returned home "about five days ago."
Colin's sister also confirmed the passing with Variety.
She told the outlet that her son had moved to Brussels to teach a music master class at a conservatory. She also said he was working on making music for a movie.
In 1993, the bassist formed the rock band Train with Pat Monahan, Jimmy Stafford and Scott Underwood in San Francisco, California. Six years later, the band scored their first Top 20 hit with "Meet Virginia."
In 2001 their smash single "Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)" helped their fame reach new heights. The single reached No. 5 and the album, "Drops of Jupiter," hit No. 6 on the Billboard 200. The song earned them the Grammy Award for Best Rock Song and the Grammy Award for Best Arrangement.
From there the band gained commercial success. They toured across the country with Hootie & the Blowfish, Sheryl Crow, Counting Crows and Barenaked Ladies.
Colin left the band in 2003 due to substance abuse.
Born in Virginia, Colin and his family moved to Newport Beach, California where he attended Newport Harbor High School.
After high school, he briefly attended the University of Southern California before his musical prowess led him to Boston's Berklee College of Music.
