Paul Di’Anno, former vocalist of the cult band Iron Maiden, has died at the age of 66. The BBC reported this.
Music label Conquest Music said the musician passed away at his home in Salisbury, UK.
Iron Maiden also expressed deep sadness at the loss, noting Di’Anno’s significant contributions early in the band’s history: “His leading presence as frontman and vocalist, both on stage and on our first two albums , will be fondly remembered by the rest of us, but also by fans around the world.”
