Authorities in Los Angeles responded to a welfare check at a home in Encino earlier this week, where they discovered the couple had died under violent circumstances. Neighbors and colleagues expressed shock, describing the pair as warm, talented, and deeply committed to their careers in the music industry.

Police reports indicate that responding officers noticed blood near the front door upon arrival. When attempts to make contact with anyone inside failed, officers gained entry by breaking a window. Inside, they found both individuals deceased, with preliminary indications pointing to gunshot wounds. The Los Angeles Police Department has launched a full investigation into the events leading up to the deaths, treating the case as a possible double homicide.

The couple’s passing has sent ripples through the music and entertainment communities. Tributes began pouring in from colleagues who admired their dedication, professionalism, and influence behind the scenes. Friends recall their generosity, creativity, and the ways they supported artists and projects, often without seeking the spotlight. Social media has been filled with messages of sorrow, remembrance, and calls for answers as authorities continue their investigation.

The victims were Robin Kaye, the acclaimed music supervisor known for her work on “American Star,” and her husband, Thomas Deluca. Robin’s career spanned decades, during which she helped shape the careers of numerous artists and contributed significantly to the success of high-profile music projects. The tragic loss of Robin and Thomas is being felt by family, friends, and the wider music community, leaving a void that will be deeply felt for years to come.
