The country music community is mourning the loss of charismatic actor, singer, performer and pop culture personality Leslie Jordan, who died on Oct. 24, 2022 at the age of 67. 

According to TMZ, the larger-than-life talent was killed after a suspected medical emergency caused his career to veer off the road and crash into a building in Hollywood. It was not the crash that killed him, but rather natural causes related to his heart.

Jason Isbell, Margo Price and Ty Herndon were among the first artists to share messages of shock and sadness over Jordan's unexpected death.

His 2021 country gospel album Company's Comin' included collaborations with a range of major acts, including Dolly Parton, Chris and Morgane Stapleton, Brandi Carlile, Ashley McBryde, Tanya Tucker and T.J. Osborne of Brothers Osborne.
