Dean Daughtry, the keyboardist and co-founder of Atlanta Rhythm Section, has died. He was 76.
The musician’s death was confirmed by the band's guitarist, Steve Stone, who said Daughtry – a native of Kinston, Alabama, died of natural causes Thursday in Huntsville.
The soft-rock Southern band, a regular presence on radio in the late-‘70s with hits "So Into You" and "Imaginary Lover" – both of which Daughtry co-wrote – paid tribute to their friend on Facebook.
