Teresa Taylor Cause of Death

American musician and actress, Teresa Taylor has died. She died on June 16, 2023. In November 2021, Taylor announced via a public Facebook post that she had been diagnosed with end-stage lung disease.

In another post a year later, she described her death as imminent, further noting that she had “received a loving message from Paul and spoke on the phone with King and Gibby. It’s all been a blast…Ciao”. Taylor’s death was announced by her partner, Cheryl Curtice on June 19, 2023.

Taylor was one of two Surfers drummers from 1983 through 1989, with the exception of a brief leave of absence from late 1985 to 1986. In that band, she and Coffey would drum in unison on separate, stand-up drum kits.

Shortly after leaving the band in 1989, Taylor was diagnosed with an aneurysm and subsequently underwent brain surgery. She also started to suffer from strobe light-induced seizures.

As of 2007, Taylor was living in Austin and still recording music with Gibby Haynes, who has a home studio there. In 2008, she returned to the Butthold Suffers: the band’s website announced tour dates for 2009 including Taylor.
