Singer and songwriter Oliver Tree has died in a helicopter crash in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday.
According to CNN Brasil, Tree was among six people aboard two helicopters that reportedly collided over Rio de Janeiro's western zone.
Authorities said all occupants were killed.
Tree was born on June 29, 1993, in Santa Cruz, California, to Jesse Louis Nickell III and Christine Marie Begin.
His parents worked in the circus during his early years, which influenced his artistic identity.
Tree began making music at a young age and initially performed under the name 'Tree' in the San Francisco Bay Area.
He was in a relationship with singer Melanie Martinez and had also been linked to other artists.
The helicopter crash occurred on Sunday morning at an electric vehicle parking area, with a fire breaking out and damaging 18-20 cars.
Tree's most recent album, 'Love You Madly, Hate You Badly,' was released earlier this year, and he had been preparing for an international tour before the news of the crash.
