It is with great sadness that we share the news that the great Terry Hall, lead singer of The Specials, Fun Boy Three, and The Colourfield, has passed away at age 63. The announcement was made by The Specials in an Instagram post:

“Following a brief illness, of Terry, our beautiful friend, brother and one of the most brilliant singers, songwriters and lyricists this country has ever produced.
Terry was a wonderful husband and father and one of the kindest, funniest, and most genuine of souls. His music and his performances encapsulated the very essence of life… the joy, the pain, the humour, the fight for justice, but mostly the love.

He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him and leaves behind the gift of his remarkable music and profound humanity.
Terry often left the stage at the end of The Specials’ life-affirming shows with three words… “Love Love Love.”

We would ask that everyone respect the family’s privacy at this very sad time.🖤
