Uriah Heep member Ken Hensley has died at the age of 75.

Kenny’s brother Trevor wrote this sad story today, November 5, in a Facebook post. As it turned out, the musician died suddenly yesterday.

The musician was the keyboardist of a progressive rock band, Uriah Heep, from the 1970s to the 1980s.

Trevor confirmed that Ken passed away peacefully while his family was with him. The post read:

“I am writing this with a heavy heart. I would like to inform you that my brother Ken Hensley passed away peacefully on Wednesday evening. His wonderful wife Monica was by his side and supported him in the last minutes of his life. We are all deeply saddened by this tragedy. “Give us time to put up with it. Ken will be cremated at a private ceremony in Spain, so please do not ask for information about the funeral. Ken has left us, but we will never forget him and he will remain in our hearts forever.”
