Former The Kinks keyboardist Ian Gibbons has died at the age of 67.
According to ultimateclassicrock.com, singer and co-founder Ray Davies said, “To simply say Ian will be missed would be an understatement. When he auditioned for the band, he only played a few chords before I knew he was the right guy to have on keyboard, he seemed to know the right voicing to musically slot in between the other members of the band. And with the Kinks, that took some doing!”
For the full death list head over to Musicians who died in 2019.
