Le musicien Gregg Foreman de The Delta 72 est mort à 53 ans

Gregg Foreman, leader du groupe The Delta 72 et collaborateur de Cat Power et The Gossip, est décédé à l'âge de 53 ans. Les hommages de ses confrères musiciens décrivent une vie passionnée et des contributions musicales variées. La disparition de ce natif de Philadelphie a suscité de nombreux messages de condoléances en ligne.

Gregg Foreman, originaire de Philadelphie, a dirigé The Delta 72 depuis sa formation en 1994. Le groupe fusionnait le post-punk avec le R&B de l'époque de la British Invasion, attirant les foules grâce à la présence scénique flamboyante de Foreman, inspirée par James Brown. Ils ont sorti trois albums studio avant de se séparer, comme le notait une critique du NME en 2005 lors d'une performance énergique à Londres, où Foreman avait sauté de la scène et réalisé des grands écarts impressionnants.
