On January 18th, the world mourned as Eagles guitarist Glenn Frey lost his life. Frey was a formative member of the band, with credits writing songs like “Take It Easy,” “Peaceful Easy Feeling” and more. Now, the members of his band will join forces to pay their respects.
With the Grammy’s coming up on February 15th, Billboard revealed that members of the Eagles, including Don Henley, Bernie Leadon, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit, will join up with Jackson Browne for a tribute to the late Frey. Browne’s inclusion likely means that the group will perform “Take It Easy,” as Frey and Browne co-wrote that hit back in 1972.

The Eagles’ performance will complement another musical tribute, as it was recently revealed that Lady Gaga would be performing a solo piano medley of David Bowie songs in honor of the late musician. RIP to Glenn Frey, David Bowie, and all of the many talents that we have lost through the first weeks of 2016.
