NXNE extends sympathy and condolences to family and friends of musician and writer Paul Quarrington. PQ passed peacefully on January 21, after being diagnosed with cancer last spring. He played NXNE with band Porkbelly Futures and graced the NXNE Film Fest with his short film Pavane, based on one of his many wonderful novels. His Governor-General’s Award-winning novel Whale Music has been called “the greatest rock ‘n roll novel ever written” and spawned a great Canadian film featuring music by the Rheostatics.
We’ll all miss you, Paul.
