Reggae Icon Bunny Wailer Founding Member of the Wailers Dead at 73 Daniel Kreps © Toronto Star/Getty Images Bunny Wailer, a founding member of the Wailers and a reggae music giant whose career spanned seven decades, has died at the age of 73. Wailer’s manager, Maxine Stowe, confirmed that Wailer died on Tuesday at the Medical Associates Hospital in Kingston, Jamaica (via the Jamaica Observer). No cause of death was given, but Wailer had been in and out of the hospital since suffering his second stroke, in 2020. More from Rolling Stone Ziggy Marley said in a statement to Rolling Stone, “Bunny Jah B Wailer’s body has left us but he knows just as we know that his legacy, music and spirit will never die.  His contribution to our music not only as a member of the Wailers but as a solo artist has been been an enormous influence for me personally and to many more around the world. Pass It On.”
