Ireland’s president has led tributes to Mark Sheehan, guitarist with Irish rock band The Script, after his death at the age of 46. The band said Sheehan died in a hospital on Friday after a brief illness. The band’s pop-inflected rock sound made it one of Ireland’s biggest bands in the 2010s. “Through their music, Mark and The Script have played an outstanding part in continuing and promoting this proud tradition of Irish musical success across the world,” Higgins said. Sheehan is survived by his wife, Rina Sheehan, and their three children.
