Kevin Clark stuck with his music after appearing nearly 20 years ago as drummer Freddy “Spazzy McGee” Jones in the wildly popular movie “School of Rock.”.
At 32, Clark had just started a new band that performed live for the first time over the past weekend on the North Shore.
He was hit by a Hyundai Sonata around 1:20 a.m. in the 2600 block of North Western Avenue, Chicago police said.
At 12, Clark landed a role in the 2003 hit “School of Rock” with actor Jack Black.
Clark was also a shift manager at Starbucks at Ashland and Irving, and had taught music at a School of Rock location in Libertyville, his mother said.
Several of Clark’s “School of Rock” co-stars paid tribute to Clark on social media.
Sending love to his family and the whole School of Rock community,” Black wrote in an Instagram post. »
