Drozd’s bandmates, friends and family shared the news of Charlotte’s disappearance on social media, imploring the public to help with the search.

Coyne and rock icon Weezer were among those who shared Charlotte’s missing person poster on Instagram.

“Thank you Wayne for posting,” Drozd commented. “We don’t know what to do.”

In addition to grappling with Charlotte going missing over the weekend, the band have been mourning the death of 17-year-old Canadian singer Nell Smith, who worked with the Flaming Lips on their 2021 Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds cover album, “Where the Viaduct Looms.”

At the band’s concert in Portland on Sunday, Coyne said that Smith was killed in a car accident, though an official cause of death has yet to be revealed.
