McCafferty's death was confirmed by Nazareth bassist Pete Agnew via social media.
"This is the saddest announcement I ever had to make. Maryann and the family have lost a wonderful loving husband and father, I have lost my best friend and the world has lost one of the greatest singers who ever lived.
Too upset to say anything more at this time."
McCafferty co-founded Nazareth with Pete Agnew, guitarist Manny Charlton and drummer Darrell Sweet in 1968, appearing on all of the band's albums up to 2014's Rock 'n' Roll Telephone.
