Rock musician Steve Harley has died at the age of 73.

The English singer and songwriter was best known for being the frontman of the rock group Cockney Rebel.

He died at his home in Suffolk on Sunday morning after a short battle with cancer – having stopped his current tour last month to undergo treatment.

In February, his official social media page said: ‘Due to ongoing treatment for cancer, Steve cannot commit to any concerts in 2024.

“Steve hopes that next year will be completely different. He appreciates all your kind words and well wishes. Keep SH.’

His best known song was ‘Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me)’ which he wrote and released in 1975.
