Richard was hospitalized last month due to a "serious medical condition," where a GoFundMe page was set up in the process to help raise money for his medical bills. It was reported that he died in Tacoma, Washington.

Richard had a very successful career as a musician prior to his death. He toured with The Black Keys back in 2014 and worked with several other artists including The Shins and Jessie Baylin. He also released seven albums and several EP's during his illustrious musical career. May he rest in peace.
