Kevin Wilkinson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kevin Wilkinson (1958 - July 17, 1999) was a musician from Swindon, England. He was a drummer, and an official member of several notable British pop groups including The Waterboys (1983-84), China Crisis (1985-89) and Squeeze (1995-96). He also played sessions for Fish and The Proclaimers, and his last work was with Howard Jones. Kevin also drummed for less well known acts - friend Paul Griffiths and songwriting partner Robbie Wyborn of King Strut and benefited hugely from his support and his contributions on their Sacred Ground album.[citation needed]

He committed suicide on July 17, 1999, age 41 by hanging himself at the family home in Swindon, Wiltshire, United Kingdom[1].
