R.I.P. Karl Wallinger

I was so sorry to hear this news moments ago. I was a big fan of Karl Wallinger's work with The Waterboys and World Party...Robert Kinsler

Karl Wallinger, the Welsh-born musician and composer better known as the singular force behind World Party, died Sunday March 10. Presciently ahead of his time with songs such as “Ship Of Fools”, “Put The Message In The Box” and "Is It Like Today?", in addition to the magic of “She’s The One” and the Waterboys' “Whole Of The Moon”, Wallinger was 66.


Karl leaves behind a loving family including wife Suzie Zamit, son Louis Wallinger, daughter Nancy Zamit and two grandchildren. The family invites Karl’s friends and fans to share their thoughts on his Facebook page or Instagram.
