UPDATE :: A Celebration of Life Drop-In has been scheduled in Darrin's honor on August 22nd. See Update #2 below for more information.

Our dear friend, Darrin Pirkle, unexpectedly passed away on April 1, 2021.

From Chris Keeney ::

Darrin has been one of my better friends over the past 15+ years, and I had the good fortune to play with him literally hundreds of times over that time. He was the best fingerstyle guitar player that I personally knew, which is saying something, but also a great electric player. I met him in my formative years as a performer and teacher of music, and though our playing styles and strengths were completely different, we pushed and sharpened each other in some great ways. I owe him a lot as a musician.

But even more so, Darrin was my friend. He was a fascinating personality that unapologetically marched to the beat of his own drum. He was eccentric, and often stubborn. But also thoughtful, generous, and fiercely loyal. Plus, he had a great, infectious laugh (and we laughed A LOT). I know he would find the irony of passing away on April 1 to be more amusing than anything. But as I’ve said to a number of folks already, this one stings, and it’s going to for a while yet.

We are heartbroken for Darrin's beloved wife, Diana, their son, Jonathan, and the entire Pirkle family, and will miss Darrin greatly. 

Funds raised through this endeavor will hopefully help ease the impact of funeral/memorial and other unexpected expenses. All donations received will go directly to Diana Pirkle. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. 

On behalf of Diana and her family, thank you.
