The keyboardist of Jack White's backing band, "Isaiah Owens" (aka Ikey), was found dead in his Puebla, Mexico hotel room on Tuesday morning.According to a spokesperson, Owens died of a hert attack; he was 38.

Owens was born Long Beach, California, and had been touring with White since 2012; he played on both of White's solo albums and before he was a member of The Mars Volta, contributing to albums such as "De-Loused in the Comatorium" and "Frances the Mute".
