In this updated study of mortality rates among musicians, the authors address mortality rates compared to general population and the musicians’: birthdates, survival status, death dates, causes of death, type of performer (distinction between solo artists and bands), country of origin, age, and whether the musician had any ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences). They also included a wider range of more modern performers in this edition of their report.
