Clem Burke, the renowned drummer of the iconic band Blondie, passed away on April 6th, 2025, at the age of 70, following a private battle with cancer. Founding members Debbie Harry and Chris Stein announced the news on social media Monday, emphasizing Burke's central role within the band. Their statement described Burke as not just a drummer but the heartbeat of Blondie, highlighting his unparalleled talent, energy, and passion for music. His contributions shaped Blondie's sound and success, and his influence extended far beyond the group, making him a pivotal figure in the music industry. Burke, born Clement Anthony Bozewski in Bayonne, New Jersey, joined Blondie in 1975, about a year after the band was formed by Harry and Stein. He quickly became an integral member of the group, contributing to every album the band released.

I always thought Blondies songs were very drum driven. He was great… Call Me is a classic and the drumming is elite.

Obit thread sucks. Too much scrolling to get anywhere. If I posted his name in the title half the people would not know who he is.

Terrible news.

Was probably the best musician in that band.
