Boston‘s lead singer Tommy DeCarlo has died at age 60 after a brief battle with brain cancer.
DeCarlo’s family confirmed his passing via a Facebook post on Monday, Mar. 9.
“It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our Dad, Tommy DeCarlo, on Monday, March 9th, 2026,” the post read. “After being diagnosed with brain cancer last September, he fought with incredible strength and courage right up until the very end.”
“During this difficult time, we kindly ask that friends and fans respect our family’s privacy as we grieve and support one another,” the post continued.
DeCarlo joined Boston after its original lead singer, Brad Delp, died in 2007. He first caught the band’s attention by recording Boston covers and posting them on MySpace. After sending the page to the group’s management, he was contacted by founding member Tom Scholz. Since 2007, he has served as the lead or co-lead vocalist for every touring lineup of Boston.
Prior to joining Boston, DeCarlo was working at a Home Depot in Charlotte, North Carolina as a credit manager. In 2021, DeCarlo released the audiobook, “Unlikely Rockstar — The Tommy DeCarlo Story,” chronicling his life up until his first performance with Boston.
DeCarlo is survived by his wife Annie and children Talia and Tommy Jr.
