According to the sources, Guru Josh had been suffering from depression for a significant amount of time and found himself at a low point following Christmas, so he booked a flight home to the U.S. to see his father. When his manager arrived at his Ibiza residence to take him to the airport around 11:00 AM, he discovered Josh’s body. The family is allegedly making burial arrangements with a mortuary.

In light of Guru Josh‘s passing, We Got This Covered expresses our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the dance music pioneer. Furthermore, we urge anyone experiencing suicidal thoughts to call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, and anyone concerned about a friend or loved one to reach out to that person directly for support.
