Overview
Kasabian frontman Tom Meighan has said he felt “shocked” by the sudden death of Amy Winehouse.
The 27-year-old singer was found dead at her flat in Camden, North London almost a week ago.
In an interview with Music Week, Meighan said he discovered Winehouse has died when bandmate Sergio Pizzorno told him by telephone.
“Before 'Back To Black' came out we had a sing song around hers,... it was great, lovely memories, I was singing one of my songs and then she just sang and I was like ‘wow what a lovely voice!’ – just nice,” he said.
Meighan added: “I am just so sorry. I had a tear, a little tear. I was in shock. My body went cold.
“I sent over some flowers today to her shrine from Kasabian - where all those people are putting all flowers - a big bunch of flowers from us. I think that’s respectful. She was lovely wasn’t she?”
As previously reported on Gigwise, Kasabian will release their new album 'Velociraptor!' on September 19.
