Eagles founding member and guitarist Glenn Frey has died aged 67 after a battle with illness.

The US rock band made the announcement on their website and official Facebook page, telling fans Frey succumbed to complications from rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative Colitis and pneumonia in New York.

"The Frey family would like to thank everyone who joined Glenn to fight this fight and hoped and prayed for his recovery," the band wrote.

"Words can neither describe our sorrow, nor our love and respect for all that he has given to us, his family, the music community [and] millions of fans worldwide."

The Detroit-born Frey and drummer and singer Don Henley co-founded the Eagles in 1971 in Los Angeles after playing as a backup band for rock singer Linda Ronstadt.
