Keane have posted an emotional tribute to Scott Johnson, the Radiohead drum tech killed in a stage accident in Canada this weekend.

Johnson also worked with Keane in his career and the band posted a short message on their website in memory of their friend earlier today (June 18).

"We lost our great friend Scott Johnson on Saturday. Scott has been part of our touring family since 2004, working as drum tech, stage manager, and studio tech, but he gave us so much more - he saw the good in everything," it reads. "He was the cheerful, dependable guy you could always turn to, who lifted the spirits of everyone around him. We can't believe he's gone. Our thoughts are with his family and friends; Radiohead and their crew. We love you Scotty, we'll miss you."

Radiohead's Phil Selway also paid tribute to Johnson on their official website following the accident, which also injured an additional three people, in Downsview Park, Toronto.
