Tributes pour in for the Scottish singer-songwriter and drummer
By Jazz Monroe
Patrick Doyle, the Veronica Falls drummer and singer-songwriter behind Boys Forever, has died. He was 32. His cause of death has not yet been revealed. Tributes to Doyle, who also played in the Royal We and under the Basic Plumbing alias, began appearing overnight on social media. A statement confirming the news appeared this afternoon on the Boys Forever Facebook page. “He was a dear son, brother, uncle and friend, and we loved him dearly,” reads the statement, which requests donations to the Los Angeles LGBT Center. “His family are immensely proud of all he achieved.”
Doyle’s Veronica Falls bandmate Marion Herbain wrote on Instagram, “Everything hurts and it’s been hard finding the right words while dealing with feelings ranging from complete heartbreak to remorse. It hasn’t fully sunk in yet, but I’m glad I got to spend some of the best years of my life by your side, as a bandmate and a friend.” Franz Ferdinand’s Alex Kapranos tweeted, “I am heartbroken by the news of the death of my friend, Patrick Doyle. Smart, funny, a great musician.... I can't sum up his life on here. I will miss him.”
