Press Release: April 24th 2007
Pete Thompson, lead singer of When it Rains committed suicide earlier this morning. At age 25, he was a rising star in the music world.

In a rambling message, apparently written in his own blood he apologizes for the mess his death will cause his sister and speaks of meeting up with former band members who have also passed on.

When it Rains was just recently lauded as “the new White Stripes” by RockNews! and Pete Thompson was interviewed last Friday by Jay Leno.

This recent tragedy has rocked the music world.
