Warren Storm Obituary – Warren Storm Passed Away! Warren Storm, known as the “Guardian of Swamp Pop,” has kicked the bucket at 84 years old. The Abbeville drummer and singer who spearheaded the marsh pop type had been hospitalized since mid-August for treatment of the Covid, as indicated by different web-based media posts from loved ones.

“There’s not a piece of the world that has not known about or has been affected by Warren in some sort of way, musically or actually,” said Lafayette artist musician Yvette Landry. “He carried Louisiana music to the world.”
Landry, who believed Storm to be family, composed a 2019 book on the bog pop artist called “Surprising the World.”
