Mick Fisher
DOB Unknown – May 28, 2011
Mick Fisher was the bassist for up-and-coming Brisbane, Queensland band, Flannelette. Formed in 2010, the hard rock group had been building a regional following thanks for their dynamic live shows and recently self-released EP. The band members were driving home from a gig on the Gold Coast when their van was reportedly struck by a semi-trailer as they were attempting to pull off the road after experiencing engine trouble. Mick Fisher (age 30), guitarist Tyler Gunn (age 24), and a female companion died as a result of their injuries. Singer/guitarist Matt Campbell, who was reportedly driving the van, survived the accident.
Thanks to Anne Bentley for the assist.
Such a tragic loss.
I never heard him called Mick. His name was Michael
