The young band leader passed away
A disease took life of a talented artist.
The Canadian rock band Die Mannequin has lost its star. Its leader and creator Caroline Kawa, who performed under the pseudonym Care Failure, died at the age of 36.
"Toronto just lost a rock icon," "Spirited, spunky and fierce", "100 per cent undeniable rockstar to the core" are some of the post on social media social media from colleagues, friends and fans.
In a statement to the media, the singer's family said that "she fought bravely against infections that caused sudden organ and heart failure."
Kawa founded Die Mannequin back in 2005 in Toronto. Since then, the alternative rock band has toured Canada several times, opening for acts like as Guns N' Roses, Marilyn Manson and Sum 41.
The band put out two full-length albums over the years, including "Fino Bleed" in 2009 and "Neon Zero" in 2014. They released three EPs, "How To Kill" in 2006, "Slaughter Daughter" in 2007 and "Danceland" in 2012, along with a compilation album, "Unicorn Steak," in 2008.
