Just woke up to this. Sucks :( dude killed it and we don’t get too many pros out of Oz this damm good.
They are saying it was complications from his diabetes and insulin.

Ben Harper and The Innocent Criminals recently got back together to record a tribute to the late Lewis Marnell. Using Lewis’s guitar, Harper and The Innocent Criminals re-recorded their song ‘Jah Work’ from the 1997 album, ‘The Will to Live.’
‘Jah Work” can be downloaded now on iTunes with all proceeds going to the Lewis Marnell family memorial fund.
