In Memoriam: Nick Babeu (Trigger Effect)
Trigger Effect vocalist Nick Babeu has sadly passed away. The band confirmed the news on their Facebook page:
Yesterday morning we lost our voice. Our singer, frontman and best friend Nick Babeu died an accidental death. We appreciate all of the kind words and actions we have heard and seen thus far. A memorial will be announced at Turbo Haus shortly. We love you Nick, thank you for the ringing in our ears and the love in our hearts.
Trigger Effect were a decade-long fixture in the Montreal punk scene, releasing their most recent album What's Left to Eliminate? in April. We spoke to Babeu back in 2008.
Our deepest condolences go out to Nick's family, friends and fans.
