In Memory of Warren Bissonnette – Founding Member of Warehouse 3
It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we share the news of the sudden passing of Warren Bissonnette, an original member of Warehouse 3, and an irreplaceable part of our creative and musical family. Warren left us unexpectedly today, and his absence has left a profound void in our hearts and in the community he helped shape with so much passion and soul.
Warren wasn’t just a musician or a founding member—he was the beating heart of Warehouse 3 during its earliest days. Alongside his fellow members, he laid the groundwork for what would become a movement of music, art, and fearless expression. His presence, both on stage and off, brought depth, authenticity, and raw energy to everything we created. Warren’s contributions weren’t loud or self-serving—they were solid, honest, and deeply rooted in the love he had for the music and for his people.
For those who had the privilege of knowing him, Warren was more than a bandmate or a performer. He was a brother, a friend, a mentor, and often, a grounding force when things got chaotic. He brought clarity in confusion, laughter in tension, and perspective when we needed it most. With his quiet wisdom, his sharp wit, and his unwavering loyalty, Warren made everyone around him better—more grounded, more focused, and more human.
To see Warren perform was to witness someone fully in their element. He didn’t just play music; he communicated something real, something deeply felt. His creative spirit helped define the sound and soul of Warehouse 3. He believed in the power of community, collaboration, and staying true to one’s artistic voice. That spirit helped carry the group forward through the years and lives on in every note we continue to play.
His sudden passing is a gut-wrenching reminder of how fragile life is. None of us were ready to say goodbye. We’re still in shock, grappling with the weight of this loss, and trying to make sense of the silence he leaves behind.
As we mourn, we also honor. We honor Warren’s legacy, his friendship, his music, and the countless moments—big and small—that he shared with us. We honor the foundation he helped build, the love he gave freely, and the inspiration he provided just by being himself.
To Warren’s family, we extend our deepest condolences. Our hearts are with you in this moment of unspeakable pain. Please know that you are not alone in your grief. The entire Warehouse 3 family, and all those who were touched by Warren’s life, mourn with you. We ask our wider community to please keep Warren’s loved ones in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.
Rest easy, Warren Bissonnette.
Your light was real. Your music lives on. Your memory is forever.
Thank you for everything. We’ll carry you with us—always.
