Perry Bamonte, The Cure’s Guitarist & Keyboardist, Dead at 65 After ‘a Short Illness’

He "was a warm hearted and vital part of The Cure story," the band said in a statement.

Perry Bamonte, The Cure‘s guitarist and keyboardist, died over the Christmas break, the band announced in a message posted to its website on Friday (Dec. 26). The musician was 65 years old.

“It is with enormous sadness that we confirm the death of our great friend and bandmate Perry Bamonte, who passed away after a short illness at home over Christmas,” the Grammy-nominated band began its statement. “Quiet, intense, intuitive, constant and hugely creative, ‘Teddy’ was a warm-hearted and vital part of The Cure story.”
