Steve Gilpin was the lead singer for the New Zealand new wave band, Mi-Sex. Formed by Gilpin in 1978, the group scored two moderate hits with “Computer Games” and “People.” Thanks to heavy airplay, constant touring, and television exposure, Mi-Sex were one of the region’s most popular bands by 1979. After the group’s break-up in 1985, Gilpin continued on singing in various groups throughout Australia and New Zealand. In late 1991, he was involved in a car accident that left him with massive head injuries and in a coma until his death on January 6, 1992. Steve Gilpin was 42 when he passed away from his injuries.
