We first report tragic news from the Johnstown area with the death of a prominent music venue owner from an apparent homicide. According to WJAC News, Cambria County Coroner Jeff Lees announced on Friday that authorities are investigating the death of Lance Ross, the owner of the Freight Station restaurant and music venue in Johnstown. The report said that police were called to the venue on Monday morning to investigate a fall injury, and that Ross was found inside the establishment and transported to the hospital where he died. He was 65. After subsequent investigation, Lees said that Ross suffered multiple blunt force trauma injuries as a result of a "violent assault" and his death has been ruled a homicide. Johnstown Police and the Cambria County District Attorney's office are continuing to investigate Ross' death, and are asking for the public's help with any additional information regarding the situation.
And area musician Ryan Clark has announced the start of his new band, called Coverfire. According to Ryan, the former guitarist for Toddo and Jampact, the new band will perform 90s-era hard rock from Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Fozzy, newer Ozzy Osbourne and more. Coverfire has recently played some shows in southeastern Pennsylvania.
