Eugene musician dies after long battle with cancer

Lea Jones

Eugene musician Lea Jones has died. He was well-known in the local music community. KRVM DJ, Johnny Etheridge said on Facebook that Jones lost a “long hard-fought battle with cancer.”

Lea’s latest project was a re-recording of a song he’d written in the 1980s called “I am not a Stranger”, which he released earlier this year.

Jones also produced a documentary called “Vietnam: An Inner View”.
He was profiled last spring in the Register-Guard and by Eugene Scene.
