The 2023 Grammys were last night (February 5), and watching the broadcast, the event appeared to go off without incident. However, during the “In Memoriam” segment, some fans couldn’t help but notice a few notable musicians were not mentioned during the show.

Some, for instance, wondered why Aaron Carter, who died last November, wasn’t included in the tribute.

Others noted that late rockers like Jeremiah Green of Modest Mouse and Mimi Parker of Low didn’t make the cut either.

Some also noticed that Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins wasn’t mentioned, but since he died shortly before last year’s show, he was honored then.

Hours before the program started, the Recording Academy actually published an In Memoriam post on its website. In the introduction, they explain, “The following is a list of artists and industry professionals the music community lost from Jan. 1, 2022 to Dec. 6, 2022. The 2022 Grammys telecast on CBS featured an In Memoriam segment highlighting some of these individuals via a video tribute, and all of these individuals who died prior to its print date are included in the official 2023 Grammys program book.”

Many of the artists missing from the broadcast are included on this list, but not Green, who died on December 31, 2022, outside of the apparent eligibility window for the list. That also explains the absence of Gangsta Boo, whose death was on January 1, 2023.

Modest Mouse Drummer Jeremiah Green Dead At 45

Modest Mouse drummer Jeremiah Green has passed away at the age of 45, the band confirmed on Sunday. His death comes just days after the group announced he had been diagnosed with cancer.

Modest Mouse frontman Isaac Brock confirmed that Green had passed in a post on Instagram.

“I don’t know a way to ease into this: Today we lost our dear friend Jeremiah,” Brock wrote. “He laid down to rest and simply faded out. I’d like to say a bunch of pretty words right now, but it just isn’t the time. These will come later, and from many people.”

“Please appreciate all the love you give, get, have given, and will get,” he further said. “Above all, Jeremiah was about love. We love you.”

Modest Mouse guitarist Simon O’Connor added in a post of his own: “Jeremiah, You are the reason I joined Modest Mouse. You are selfless, hilarious, brave, and exceptionally kind. I would look at you from across the stage and you knew when I was feeling lost and needed assurance.”

Green was a founding member of Modest Mouse back in 1993. He stayed with the group through 2003, before taking a year-long break. Green then returned in 2004 and remained with the group until his passing.

Modest Mouse released their debut album, This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About, in 1996. Their biggest singles include “Float On,” “Ocean Breathes Salty,” “Dashboard,” “Missed the Boat,” and more.

He was married to Lauren Green, with whom he shares one son.
