Conway Savage—the pianist, organist, and backing vocalist for Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds—died Sunday night, according to a statement on the band’s website. He was 58.

Last year, Savage underwent surgery to remove a brain tumor. Due to his diagnosis and operation, he missed much of the band’s tour behind their latest album Skeleton Tree. He died as a result of the brain tumor, the band’s publicist confirms to Pitchfork. Savage joined Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds in 1990 for The Good Son. He released multiple collaborative and solo albums throughout his career.

Savage was born in Victoria, Australia and began playing piano in his early teens. He went on to play in multiple bands throughout the ‘80s, such as country music band the Feral Dinosaurs, Happy Orphans, and Dust on the Bible. With Nick Cave’s band, he recorded seven albums including Henry’s Dream (1992), Murder Ballads (1996), and Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus (2004). Throughout his time with them, Savage also recorded with various other artists, including Suzie Higgie, with whom he made the album Soon Will Be Tomorrow (1995). In 2000, he released his full-length solo debut Nothing Broken on his own label, Beheaded Communications. His last release was 2010’s Pussy’s Bow EP with Amanda Fox and Robert Tickner.
