Mike Henderson, who cofounded the SteelDrivers with Chris Stapleton and later won Grammys and CMAs for Stapleton's solo hits, has died.
Country-bluegrass songwriter and instrumentalist Mike Henderson, who won Grammy and CMA awards as a collaborator of country superstar, died Friday at age 70. His wife of nearly 45 years, Janet, said in a post on the musician’s website that he had been in “very good health” before dying peacefully in his sleep.
Even though he released solo albums before and after his tenure in the SteelDrivers, Henderson ultimately found his greatest renown as a songwriting partner of Stapleton’s. “It is with a heavy heart we announce the passing of Mike,” his wife, Janet, wrote in a statement. “He was a wonderful husband, father, and the love of my life for almost 45 years. We followed his dreams, and colleagues, friends and fans allowed him to achieve a level of success we never imagined. He most valued his friends who meant everything. Although Mike was in very good health, he died peacefully in his sleep yesterday morning.
One of their vintage SteelDrivers writing collaborations, “If It Hadn’t Been for Love,” was covered by Adele on her 2011 “Live at the Royal Albert Hall” live album and video release.
