LeRoi Holloway Moore (September 7, 1961 – August 19, 2008) was an American saxophonist. He was a founding member of the Dave Matthews Band. Moore often arranged music for the songs written by frontman Dave Matthews. Moore also co-wrote many of the band's songs, notably "Too Much" and "Stay (Wasting Time)".
Moore was born on September 7, 1961, in Durham, North Carolina, to Roxie Holloway Moore and Albert P. Moore. Raised in Virginia, he attended college at James Madison University studying tenor saxophone, and later became an accomplished jazz musician in Charlottesville, Virginia, playing with artists such as John D'earth and Dawn Thompson. Moore began playing professionally after a brief stay in college. Moore helped found the Charlottesville Swing Orchestra (1982), and the John D'earth Quintet. The latter played at Miller's, a Charlottesville bar, every Thursday night in the late 1980s, where Moore first met Dave Matthews in 1991. In an effort to bring in some instrumental help for some songs Matthews had written, Moore began recording songs with Matthews.

David John "Dave" Matthews (born January 9, 1967) is a South African-born American singer-songwriter, musician and actor, best known as the lead vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist for the Dave Matthews Band. Matthews was born in Johannesburg, South Africa and moved to Westchester County, New York at the age of 2. Matthews mainly plays acoustic guitar, which he started playing at age 9.
From 1991 to 2003, Matthews predominantly focused on songwriting and performing with the Dave Matthews Band, which he started in Charlottesville, Virginia in 1991. Since then, he has also done various solo performances and produced other records. During the period from 2000 to 2010, his band sold more tickets and earned more money than any other act in North America. The band's most recent album, Away from the World, released in 2012, made them the only group to have six consecutive studio albums debut at number one on the Billboard charts.
Dave Matthews Band (often abbreviated to DMB) is an American rock band that was formed in Charlottesville, Virginia in 1991. The founding members were singer-songwriter and guitarist Dave Matthews, bassist Stefan Lessard, drummer/backing vocalist Carter Beauford and saxophonist LeRoi Moore. Boyd Tinsley was added to the band as a violinist soon after the band was formed. Moore died suddenly in August 2008 due to complications from injuries sustained in an ATV accident. Grammy Award-winner Jeff Coffin (of Béla Fleck and the Flecktones) has since filled Moore's spot as the band's saxophonist. Rashawn Ross and Tim Reynolds have also become full-time touring members of the band. The band's 2009 album Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King (the first album since Moore's death) debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, earning the band their fifth consecutive number-one debut. Their most recent album, Away from the World, released in 2012, debuted at number one on the Billboard chart — making them the only group to have six consecutive studio albums debut in the top spot. As of 2010, the Dave Matthews Band has sold over 30 million records worldwide.

In Memory of Leroi Moore (1961 - 2008) Leroi Moore will forever be the heart of Dave Matthews Band as well as the glue that keeps them together. "It's so unselfish when he plays. It's so absolutely not about him. In a really different way from any other musician I've ever heard, he plays as if he's not there. Leroi can blow his ass off on the heavy tunes but in the quieter tunes is when you can hear him whisper and that just blows my mind." - Dave Matthews (1999) My personal favorite rendition of #41 based solely on Leroi's mind-blowing saxophone and flute solo at the start of the jam.

LeRoi Moore - the Unknown Titan of American Music A pure and unique improviser, LeRoi Moore stood at the forefront of American music for nearly two decades as a founding member of Dave Matthews Band. His playing was without artifice, and contributed to millions in album sales, sold out tours, and multiple awards. Despite this, very little is known about him.

The musical career of the great Leroi Moore with the Dave Matthews Band. This video was made from a collection of videos I saved over the years. I can't believe he is gone. RIP and you will be forever missed. Your place in history has been permanently cemented. Things will never be the same.
From 12/31/95, this is what I think to be the finest performance of Proudest Monkey that the Dave Matthews Band has ever had. Leroi Moore at his best......

Ever since and always waiting
lost the chance to do what we never did
We'll curse ourselves for hesitating
but, nevermore let fear forbid
Because, maybe we were
closer than we think
Still, no one touched
and the suspense was killing me
It was only love, only lust,
only innocence
It was only real, only right,
only wondering if
ever since
Maybe we were hoping things
we couldn’t let our mouths admit
Waiting on momentum to get
caught up in the thrill of it
But, funny how that
moment never came
To do what everybody said
would happen anyway
It was only love, only lust,
only innocence
It was only real, only right,
only wondering if
ever since
I heard your back
I’m hoping that we could
go back and take our time
and finally find out why
It was only love, only lust,
only innocence
It was only real, only right,
only wondering if
