The band issued a statement yesterday stating, "It is out of sincere love that we share that our beloved husband, father, son, and brother and lead singer of Morgan Heritage Peter Anthony Morgan has ascended today,” the group said.
Morgan who was known as "Peetah" was the son of the renowned Jamaican reggae singer Denroy Morgan and was 47 years old at the time of his death.
He together with his 4 siblings formed Morgan Heritage in 1994 and the band won a Grammy in 2016 for " Best Reggae Album 2016 for Strictly Routes."
The cause of his death is yet to be revealed to the public as the people close to him ask for privacy during this period of grief.
