LEGENDARY BASSPLAYER AND MANIMAL FRIEND, MICK KARN HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH ADVANCED CANCER. HE IS A FOUNDING MEMBER OF JAPAN (with David Sylvian), DALI’S CAR (with Peter Murphy) and has played with Kate Bush, Gary Numan and oh so many more. He has also generously donated his verison of “Ashes to Ashes” to Manimal’s Bowie tribute for the War Child charity.
His family have been crushed with mounting hospital bills as Mick is receiving treatment. The fact that he is and has always been an artist means that he has very little money to pay for this.
The family are accepting Paypal donations. Clicking on the title will take you directly to the site.
MANY THANKS.
