Peter Murphy, storico cantante e leader dei Bauhaus, ha avuto un attacco cardiaco lo scorso 13 agosto.

Come riportato da una nota ufficiale l’artista, che era a New York, avrebbe accusato mancanza di respiro motivo per il quale era stato trasportato d’urgenza all’ospedale dove dai primi accertamenti è emerso che Murphy aveva appena subito un infarto.

Il cantante sessantenne ha così annullato la data prevista quella sera a Le Poisson Rouge così come le quattro serate di ‘residenza’ (15, 16, 18 e 19 agosto) che avrebbe dovuto tenere sempre nella città  americana dove oggi rimane ricoverato sotto osservazione.

Come riferito dal cardiologo del Lenox Hill Hospital di New York, il dott. Jason Song, a Murphy sono stati impiantati due stent all’arteria coronaria di Murphy.
