Bruno Adams FamilyA wonderful live performance at Troedler in Kreuzberg, Berlin, by Bruno Adams featuring Chris Hughes on drums, as well as a touching few songs with Bruno's wife and his son, filmed by Mark Steiner prior to his set later that evening. Rest In Peace, Bruno. You are already missed terribly.

For those of you who don't already know, Fatal Shore singer and frontman Bruno Adams died peacefully in his sleep in the early hours of Saturday morning, 18/4/2009. Bruno had been battling cancer for five years with all the strength and courage he could muster. But in the end time ran out, and he passed away at home in Berlin, surrounded by his family and close friends. Although in great physical pain, Bruno never once gave in to self-pity or despair. He loved his wife Katka and his three children with a depth of passion that never faltered, and in spite of his rapidly deterorating condition, he managed to remain lucid and aware right up until the end. Bruno loved life and he loved people, and for him to be taken from us at such a young age is a tragedy that we will all suffer to come to terms with. The wonderful music he made will continue to inspire, and everyone whose life he touched (and there are many), will remember this unique and beautiful character with the deep love and respect that were the hallmark of Bruno's own attitude to life.
Bruno Adams: Born 02/09/1963, Bacchus Marsh, Australia. Died 18/04/2009 R.I.P. Berlin, Germany.
Details about Bruno's funeral will be posted on the Fatal Shore homepage as soon as we know them. Go to: www.fatal-shore.de The funeral will take place in Berlin, and all Bruno's friends are welcome to attend.
