Leading NZ Guitarist Dies

Mike Farrell Passes

Sat 20 May 2000 - Unconfirmed reports just to hand, say that Mike Farrell died in the early hours of the morning. He was about to perform at Auckland's "Java Jive" - a late night music venue. He became ill and the gig was cancelled. He died of a heart attack in the early hours of the morning.

Mike will be sorely missed. A consummate guitarist with high order technical skills he was sought after as a session musician as well as for his performance skills and as a record producer.

The NZBS offers condolences to his family and his many friends and colleagues.
