David Roback, a founding member of the influential bands Mazzy Star, Opal, and the Rain Parade, has died at the age of 61, according to his rep.

He later cofounded Opal with bassist and singer Kendra Smith, who was a former member of another influential Paisley Underground act, the Dream Syndicate. Opal released a pair of EPs and the 1987 album"Happy Nightmare Baby," a classic of 1980s psychedelia that, due to troubles with SST, the label that initially released it, has largely fallen between the cracks of music history.

With interest rising in the alternative-rock scene that they were loosely affiliated with, Mazzy Star signed with Capitol and had a surprise hit in 1993 with"Fade Into You," a gentle rocker from their album"So Tonight That I Might See."
