Timeline

1957

Philip Ryan (17 June 1957 – 8 October 2013), professionally known as Philip Chevron, was an Irish singer-songwriter and guitarist and record producer.

1970

He was best known as the lead guitarist for the celtic punk band The Pogues and as the frontman for the 1970s punk rock band The Radiators from Space.

Beginning in the late 1970s, he was lead singer and co-founder of the punk rock group The Radiators from Space, receiving some critical acclaim but little widespread popularity or financial success.

1981

Following a temporary breakup of the band in 1981, he lived in London for a while, meeting and befriending Shane MacGowan through time spent working together at a record shop.

1984

Following the release of the Pogues' 1984 debut album Red Roses For Me, he was invited to join the band on a short-term basis as cover for banjo player Jem Finer's paternity leave.

He took over as guitarist following MacGowan's decision to concentrate on singing—thereby becoming a full-time member of the band in time for the recording of its second album, Rum, Sodomy and the Lash.

Chevron wrote the songs "Thousands Are Sailing" and "Lorelei" among others.

1987

Chevron was openly gay and penned the anti-homophobia song "Under Clery's Clock", which was first performed in 1987 when The Radiators reformed for one gig, an AIDS benefit in Dublin, and released as a single in 1989.

1994

He left The Pogues in 1994 following problems with drugs and alcohol.

2001

He toured regularly with The Pogues, who reunited after a reunion tour in 2001.

2003

In 2003, he reformed The Radiators (Plan 9) with ex-Pogues bassist Cait O'Riordan.

2004

In 2004, he oversaw the remastering and re-release of The Pogues' entire back catalogue on CD.

2006

They released the album Trouble Pilgrim in 2006.

In later years, he became The Pogues' unofficial spokesperson and frequently visited online forums, answering questions from fans.

2007

In June 2007, The Pogues' website announced that Chevron had been diagnosed with oesophageal cancer.

2008

In early 2008, the website announced that Chevron had recovered, and that his hearing had returned to almost pre-treatment levels.

He embarked on the March 2008 tour of the United States and sang "Thousands Are Sailing" at each performance.

2009

By 2009, Chevron was free of cancer.

2013

Upon his death in 2013, Chevron was regarded as one of the most influential figures in Irish punk music.

Chevron grew up in Santry, a suburb of Dublin.

However, in May 2013, it was announced that the cancer had returned and Chevron was terminally ill.

His last public appearance was at the Olympia Theatre for a fundraiser in August of the same year.

Chevron died on 8 October 2013 in Dublin at age 56.
