Biography
Showing the Discogs bio
Richard H. Kirk (born 21 March 1956, Sheffield, England - died 21 September 2021) was an English musician who specialised in electronic music. He was a member of the industrial music band Cabaret Voltaire, formed in 1973. He released his first solo album "Disposable Half-Truths" in 1980, and developed a solo career parallel to the band until its dissolution in 1994. His music featured a fusion of diverse musical genres from dance-orientated Techno and House to Experimental Electronica and Ambient.
Kirk resurrected the Cabaret Voltaire name in 2009 as the sole member.
