ATLANTA, GA - JANUARY 21: Musician Bill Withers attends 25th Annual Trumpet Awards at Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center on January 21, 2017 in Atlanta, Georgia.

SiriusXM is sad to report that Bill Withers — the legendary singer who wrote and recorded several of the definitive soul songs of the 1970s, including “Lean on Me,” “Ain’t No Sunshine,” and “Lovely Day” — has passed away at age 81 from heart complications, his family said in a statement.

Tune in to SiriusXM’s Soul Town (Ch. 49) now to hear Withers’ music, as well as tributes about him, throughout the day.
