Stereo Embers wishes a speedy recovery to Flesh For LuLu’s Nick Marsh.
Marsh has undergone several surgeries for throat and mouth cancer and remains hospitalized. Prior to his illness the singer/songwriter reformed Flesh For LuLu and continued to tour and play lead guitar with The Urban Voodoo Machine.
Marsh’s recovery means he can’t play music for a while, leaving the husband and father of two with an income that’s seriously compromised. Jo Sharp writes: “As a musician, Nick does not get sick pay. Before he got ill, Nick’s other source of income was decorating houses. Due to the complexity of his first surgery, Nick’s body can no longer handle the physical demands of painting and decorating.”
As a result, Sharp has helped set up a GoFundMe page for Marsh and his family here.
She further explains the urgency of the situation: “The Marsh family faces a tough time and is at risk of eviction. Nick’s recovery would be hindered by living in a bedsit. His daughters are facing more stress than young children should bear. They too need to remain in their family home, close to friends and school. We are raising funds to remove their immediate money worries so they can concentrate on giving Nick the rest and stability that will be so crucial in his fight for survival.”
Additionally Marsh and his wife, Katharine Blake (Miranda Sex Garden, Mediaeval Babes) have a fabulous new album called From The Deep and you can order it here:
