Bauhaus: Goth-Rock Vocalist Peter Murphy Recovering from Heart Surgery

Peter Murphy, former frontman of influential goth-rock band Bauhaus, suffered a heart attack on Tuesday evening.

The 60-year-old musician was rushed to a local New York City hospital due to a shortness of breath and was subsequently diagnosed with a myocardial infarction, according to a representative for Murphy.

As a result of his hospitalization, Murphy has postponed all remaining dates of his residency at New York’s  Le Poisson Rouge. “These shows will be postponed to later dates to be determined,” a press release notes.

Last year, Murphy reunited with former Bauhaus bandmate David J for “The Ruby Tour: 40 Years of Bauhaus”.
