Singer-songwriter and music industry exec Tommy Page was found dead on Friday. He was 46.

Page is best known for his 1990 US number one single ‘I’ll be Your Everything’. He released several albums through Warner’s Sire label in the 1990s, before latterly self-releasing a number of records through his website. However, in 1997 he moved over to the other side of the industry, working for Warner Bros Records in A&R for almost fifteen years.

In 2011, he left the label to become a publisher at music industry magazine Billboard. Subsequently, he has held senior roles at Pandora, Cumulus Media and the Village Voice. He also continued to perform live.

No official cause of death has yet been announced, but Billboard reports that it was an apparent suicide.

In a statement, Page’s family said: “It is with great sadness that we mourn the loss of our beloved Tommy Page who passed away this weekend. Tommy was a devoted father, husband, brother and son. He was loved by all of those he touched and will be sorely missed. Please respect our privacy at this time of deep sorrow”.
