Peter Ham 27/04/47 – 24/04/75
Despite releasing six albums and having four hit singles, Swansea rockers Badfinger got caught up in severe financial and managerial difficulties. Unable to cope the keyboardist and guitarist committed suicide by hanging in 1975 and leaving a note that accused the bands manager Stan Polley of stealing the bands royalties. Ham was just three days shy of 28. Eight years later, fellow Badfinger band-mate Thomas Evans took his own life in a similar manner to that of Ham.

- Although this is contentious, Richie Edwards of the Manic Street Preachers also disappeared at 27 I think. He can’t be an official member of the 27 club as his body was never found even though its suspected he jumed off the severn bridge
