Tommy DeCarlo, the frontman of the rock band Boston, has died at the age of 60.

On Monday, March 9, the classic rock singer’s wife, Annie. and his children, Talia & Tommy Jr., made a social media post, announcing DeCarlo’s death.

“It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our Dad, Tommy DeCarlo, on Monday, March 9th, 2026,” the statement began on Facebook. “After being diagnosed with brain cancer last September, he fought with incredible strength and courage right up until the very end.”

DeCarlo’s family added, “During this difficult time, we kindly ask that friends and fans respect our family’s privacy as we grieve and support one another. Rest in peace, Dad.”

Before his passing, DeCarlo’s family launched a GoFundMe campaign to help cover the costs of his medical treatment, raising more than $56,000 by Monday afternoon.

According to the fundraiser, DeCarlo suffered a brain bleed in September and underwent an emergency craniotomy. During the procedure, doctors discovered two melanoma tumours on his brain as well as another spot on his lung.

His family later shared an update on January 2, revealing that he had been discharged from hospital and was able to return home the day after Christmas.
