Former Coal Chamber bassist Rayna Foss has been missing for months, according to authorities. She was reportedly last seen by her manager on Sept. 7, 2021. The 51-year-old is described as being 5′ 3″ and 200 pounds, but there’s no last known clothing description. Anyone with additional information on her whereabouts is encouraged to contact NOPD Seventh District detectives at 504-658-6070.

Foss became Coal Chamber’s first bass player in 1994 a year after the band was started by Dez Farina and guitarist Meegs Rascon. She played with the band from 1994 to 1999 and again from 2000 to 2002 and was on band’s first three records including the breakthrough album, “Chamber Music,” in 1999. When Coal Chamber reunited in 2011, Fafara said of her absence from the lineup: “Rayna was not (asked to be a part of it). Rayna has been out of the band for a very long time.” Foss was previously married to Sevendust drummer Morgan Rose. That marriage, which ended in divorce in 2003, produced a daughter named Kayla, who was born in October 1999.
