RIP Scott - may your demons trouble you no more Body confirmed as missing Frightened Rabbit singer please log in to view this image Image copyrightREX FEATURES A body found at a marina on the banks of the Firth of Forth has been confirmed as missing Frightened Rabbit singer Scott Hutchison. The discovery was made at Port Edgar, between the Forth Road Bridge and Queensferry Crossing, at about 20:30 on Thursday. Mr Hutchison, 36, went missing in the early hours of Wednesday morning. His family said there had been recent concerns about his mental health, and they were "devastated" by his death. Mr Hutchison had spoken openly about his battle with depression over the years, with elder brother Neil saying he had done so "in an attempt to help other people with similar conditions". 'Articulate and charismatic' In a statement released on Friday, the family said Mr Hutchison "wore his heart on his sleeve, and that was evident in the lyrics of his music and the content of many of his social media posts. "He was passionate, articulate and charismatic, as well as being one of the funniest and kindest people we knew. Friends and family would all agree that he had a brilliant sense of humour and was a great person to be around." 'His music meant so much to people' Profile: Frightened Rabbit Scott Hutchison at The Quay Sessions with new band Mastersystem The statement added that relatives had "remained positive and hopeful that he would walk back through the door, having taken some time away to compose himself". And it described Mr Hutchison as a "wonderful son, brother, uncle and friend" who always had time for those he cared for. please log in to view this image Image captionScott Hutchison formed Frightened Rabbit alongside his brother Grant, the band's drummer "Depression is a horrendous illness that does not give you any alert or indication as to when it will take hold of you", it added. "Scott battled bravely with his own issues for many years and we are immensely proud of him for being so open with his struggles. "His willingness to discuss these matters in the public domain undoubtedly raised awareness of mental health issues and gave others confidence and belief to discuss their own issues." If you or someone you know has been affected by mental health problems, these organisations may be able to help. His Frightened Rabbit bandmates released a statement saying: "There are no words to describe the overwhelming sadness and pain that comes with the death of our beloved Scott, but to know he is no longer suffering brings us some comfort. "Reading messages of support and hope from those he has helped through his art has helped immensely and we encourage you all to continue doing this. "He will be missed by all of us and his absence will always be felt but he leaves a legacy of hope, kindness and colour that will forever be remembered and shared." please log in to view this image Image copyrightPOLICE SCOTLAND Image captionScott Hutchison was last seen after visiting the Dakota Hotel in South Queensferry The singer and guitarist had last been seen on CCTV footage leaving the Dakota Hotel in nearby South Queensferry at 01:00 on Wednesday.

You are a right muppet. Did I make you look stupid in another post and you couldn't get over it? Stop being a troll and bore someone else. Shocking because he had just dropped his kids of at school Shocking because he is only 37 Shocking because his family has lost a dad/Husband in a head-on collision. Muppet. I would call you something else but I would probably get banned.
