I just saw Ian McNabb mention this. Gutted. World Party were a great band. RIP Karl.

Loved World Party. RIP

Bloody hell. He seemed to have it all going for him & was always having fun & making music.
Two great bands to have been involved with is a hell of a legacy. RIP

RIP Karl. I Loved World Party so much my first band used to cover Put The Message In The Box. Truly a great songwriter.

Sad news. I saw him with The Waterboys a couple of times - was a big fan of the albums he was involved with.

I’ve been a huge fan since the 80s, and Goodbye Jumbo is one of the albums I listen to when I’m in need of some positivity.

I’ll play Is it like today? badly to myself tomorrow and remember how good a songwriter he was.

I saw this sad news last night. Still trying to get my head around it. Fantastic musician and songwriter.

Can't quite believe it. One of my fave bands for many years... just awful, awful news.

RIP Karl.

Brilliant songwriter. Feel like he never quite got the wider recognition he deserved. RIP.
