US violinist, 26, dies

US violinist, 26, dies

A GoFundMe has been raised in memory of Haiden Davis, a Denver cviolinist and ensemble leader who took his own life last month after struggles with mental health and substance use.

Haiden was a gifted violinist who began with classical training, eventually discovering his passion for music production and jazz. In Denver, Colorado, he co founded the Latin jazz band Ojo De Luna and continued to share his music around the world — from Colorado and Oregon to Costa Rica and Cuba. Wherever he went, Haiden left an unforgettable impact through his deep capacity for love, connection, and his irresistible, chaotic humor. There was truly no one like him, and his absence is felt beyond words.

All funds will go to Musicares and other support organisation.
