Steve Harwell, the frontman of the popular band Smash Mouth, has died at 56 years old, according to TMZ. It was reported over the weekend that Harwell had been given only a few days to live as his health deteriorated, and he ultimately died Sunday morning at his home in Boise, Idaho.

Harwell, known for his distinctive voice and charismatic stage presence, was a prominent figure in the music industry for decades. Smash Mouth gained worldwide fame with hits like “All Star” and “Walkin' on the Sun,” becoming a defining sound of the late 1990s and early 2000s.

News of Harwell's deteriorating health condition surfaced recently, with friends and colleagues expressing their support and well-wishes. The singer dealt with alcohol abuse throughout his life, the artist's manager told TMZ, which led to liver failure. After receiving treatment in the hospital, Harwell returned home to hospice care and was surrounded by friends and loved ones at the time of his passing.
