Seth Binzer, known as the Crazy Town star, sadly passed away on June 24th at the age of 49 due to an accidental drug overdose. He had been struggling with substance abuse issues for years. However, in one of his final interviews before his death, he declared that he was clean and healthy.
During an appearance at the Rock to Recovery benefit concert in Los Angeles last August, Seth said, “I’m feeling sober. I’m feeling good. Sober, happy…”
He credited his music and his three children as the inspiration for him to “live.” In the interview, he added, “I think music has kept me alive. It has always been the light that gives me… and my children inspire me to live. Music has always been my therapy. It has helped me get through everything…”
Seth was the father of three children: Halo, Gage, and Phoenix. His family remembered him in a statement after his passing.
The statement read, “To Seth, the world was art. He loved every part of it, from music and fashion to graffiti, skateboarding, and his hometown of Los Angeles. He loved his three boys more than anything, and his dedication to his music and fans never wavered.”
It continued, “Seth struggled with addiction throughout his life. He faced this struggle on a very public platform, which was particularly challenging. He tried so hard to beat his demons, but sadly, he lost his battle. Our hearts are shattered by his loss. Seth’s larger-than-life presence touched so many.”
