MARK STEWART – 10/8/60 – 21/4/23 Mark Stewart passed away in early hours of Friday 21 April 2023 Mark’s family and friends respectfully ask to be given space at this difficult time.

Rest in peace Mark Stewart. Broken to read this news. Mark was a friend i valued as both inspiration, comedian and troublemaker.Big hearted as possible, 101% commited to the next thing. Original in every way, his spirit live will live on, but i miss him already..

Incredibly sad to hear about the Passing of “The Godfather of Bristol” Mark Stewart x Bristol would be a very different place artistically and politically if it not been for Marks influence on all of us My deepest condolences go to his family and friends. X

The Pop Group brought all new ideas into the punk landscape, ranting politics and abstraction of form. They inhabited/evoked dub without resorting to minstrelsy. Breathtaking musically, but Mark Stewart's delivery made them hard as nails. Requiescat. theguardian.com/music/2023/apr…

All of us at On-U Sound are devastated to learn of the passing of Mark Stewart. His importance and influence in the story of the label cannot be over-stated. He was there at the beginning, a close friend and musical collaborator with Adrian Sherwood from then until now. R.I.P.
