Deacon Frey (born April 17, 1993) is an American musician, best known for being a member of the band Eagles following his father's death in 2016 until 2022,[1] and then again in 2023 when they announced their farewell tour.[2]
Early life
Deacon Frey was born to father Glenn Frey, best known as a member of the Eagles from 1971–1980 and then again from 1994–2016, and mother Cindy Millican in 1993.[3][4]
Initial stint in the Eagles (2016-2022)
Deacon Frey was drafted by the surviving members of the Eagles to replace his father following his death in 2016.[1] This version of the Eagles was simply a touring group and did not record in the studio, nor are there any plans for them to do so in the future, per fellow member Timothy B. Schmit.[5] Frey remained with the group until 2022, when he left to pursue a solo career, although he made occasional guest appearances with the band.
Eagles farewell tour (2023–present)
In 2023, the Eagles announced their farewell tour. They also announced that Frey would be returning to the band full time for the tour.[2] The band's residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas was extended into 2026, with Frey in the lineup alongside Don Henley, Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmit and Vince Gill.[6]
