Australian rocker dies after long illness: 'Won't be the same without him'


Andrew Picouleau, best known for his work with Dave Graney and the Coral Snakes, The Metronomes, and Sacred Cowboys, has died following a long illness.

In the statement, Webb wrote, 'It is with deep sadness and profound heartbreak that we find ourselves posting the news that Andrew Picouleau, gifted bass player, musical creative and wonderful singer, passed away this week after a long illness.' 'He was one of life's wonderful people, sharp and articulate, and a highly skilful and intelligent bass player who gave The Metronomes an unusually solid foundation for an electronic/synth group,' he captioned the post. Picouleau made his mark in the Australian music scene as the bassist for Dave Graney and the Coral Snakes, most notably contributing to the band's 1993 album Night of the Wolverine.
