The country music world is in mourning this week after the death of Cady Groves, who passed away on Saturday. She was only 30 years-old.
The death of Cady, who was best known for her songs “This Little Girl” and “Oil and Water,” was confirmed by her brother Cody. He said that she died of natural causes in a post in which he also referenced their brothers Casey and Kelly, who died in 2007 and 2014, respectively.
“@cadygroves has left this world. Details are limited right now but family is trying to get them and will keep people updated. Rest In Peace little sis. Hope you’re reunited with @kellydgroves and Casey,” Cody wrote.

Cady had previously said that her brothers had both died at 28, and suggested that Casey was murdered, according to Fox News. After denying that this was a hoax, Cody posted a lengthier explanation of his sister’s death on Twitter.
“I hate that I even have to do this, but apparently the world and internet is a cluster of twisted misinformation. In my original post I had stated we had no information to try and prevent that, but to expel rumors I will provide an update” he wrote. “The medical examiner has completed autopsy and there was no indication of foul play or self harm. Simply put, Cady Groves died of natural causes.”
“She had some medical problems last fall and our best guess at this point until further testing is complete is that they had resurfaced,” Cody added. “Please respect her name and family before sharing information that did not come directly from here.”
He concluded his note by saying that Cady had been in the process of recording an album that she was very excited about at the time of her death.
“Cady was really looking forward to the next few months and release of her new album,” Cody concluded. “Our latest in-depth conversation (since most were witty banter) was her sending me songs to critique and give feedback on.”

30 is far too young for anyone to pass away. Please join us in saying a prayer for Cady’s family during this difficult time.
