Bronski Beat co-founder and keyboardist Steve Bronski died at the age of 61. Steve Bronski wasn’t married, which means he had no partner or wife. 

According to the source, Steve Bronski, a founding member of the groundbreaking British synthpop band Bronski Beat, has died. His age was given as 61 by the BBC. There was no mention of a cause of death.

Jimmy Somerville, a bandmate, characterized him as a “brilliant and highly melodious man.”

Bronski, also known as Steven Forrest, co-founded the band with Larry Steinbachek and Somerville in 1983.

The band’s three members were openly gay, and they used prominent political themes in their music to fight what they saw as the inoffensive tone of the era’s LGBT artists. As a result, they were dubbed “possibly the first real gay group in music history” by Spin magazine in the United States.

Sad to hear Steve Bronski has died. He was a talented and a very melodic man. Working with him on songs and the one song that changed our lives and touched so many other lives, was a fun and exciting time. Thanks for the melody Steve. Jimmy x
