Perry Bamonte, guitarist and keyboardist with The Remedy, dies aged 65


Perry Bamonte, guitarist and keyboardist with The Remedy, has died on the age of 65.

The information was introduced earlier in the present day (December 26) with an announcement on the band’s official web site, which confirmed that their “nice good friend and bandmate” had handed away “after a brief sickness at residence over Christmas”.

“Quiet, intense, intuitive, fixed and massively inventive, ‘Teddy’ was a heat hearted and important a part of The Remedy story,” the tribute learn. “Our ideas and condolences are with all his household. He will probably be very drastically missed.”

Born Perry Archangelo Bamonte in London on 3 September 1960, he initially grew to become a member of The Remedy’s street crew in 1984, after his brother Daryl was appointed as their tour supervisor, and he went on to change into frontman Robert Smith’s guitar technician and private assistant.

When keyboardist Roger O’Donnell left the band in 1990, Bamonte grew to become a full-time Remedy member, enjoying guitar and keyboards – having been taught the latter by Smith’s sister Janet – in addition to six-string bass and percussion every so often.

He performed on a string of albums, from 1992’s ‘Want’ to 2000’s ‘Bloodflowers’, earlier than being dismissed in 2005. He joined the band Love Amongst Smash in 2012 alongside members of Placebo and Julian Cope’s band, earlier than reconnecting with The Remedy for their induction into the Rock and Roll Corridor of Fame in 2019.

He formally rejoined the band in 2022, enjoying on the whole thing of the ‘Exhibits Of A Misplaced World’ tour, together with their most up-to-date present at London’s Troxy in November 2024, which has now been immortalised within the live performance movie The Present Of A Misplaced World. He didn’t contribute to ultimate album ‘Songs Of A Misplaced World’, nonetheless, because the recording had been accomplished earlier than he rejoined.
