It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we share the devastating 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 the weight of his absence is almost too much to bear. In the blink of an eye, the world has lost not only a gifted musician and passionate artist, but a true friend, brother, and soul who touched so many lives with his light, humor, and authenticity. There are no words that can fully express the grief we are feeling, or the enormity of the void he has left behind — not only in our hearts, but in the very spirit of the community he helped build from the ground up.
From the earliest days of Warehouse 3, Warren was there — a visionary and a heartbeat, helping to mold the creative force that would become so much more than just a collective. To us, he was family. His passion was infectious, his energy limitless, and his belief in music as a tool for connection and healing was unwavering. He poured every ounce of his being into every note, every session, every collaboration. To work with Warren was to witness magic being made — spontaneous, fearless, and full of soul.
Warren was not just a musician. He was a connector. A catalyst. A mentor. Whether he was behind the mic, in the studio, or simply sitting with someone who needed to talk, he gave freely of himself. He uplifted others. He made people believe in their gifts. He made us laugh until we cried, and sometimes cry just because he cared so deeply.
His influence stretches far beyond the walls of Warehouse 3. Warren inspired a movement — not through fame or accolades, but through presence. Through his raw honesty. Through the way he showed up for people. He built bridges between genres, generations, and souls, uniting artists of all walks with his generous spirit and powerful voice.
Today, we grieve. We mourn the loss of a brother, a collaborator, and a friend. The sound of his laughter, the pulse of his creativity, the warmth of his presence — these things cannot be replaced. But they also cannot be taken from us. Warren lives on in the echoes of every song he touched, in the lives he changed, in the community he so fiercely believed in.
To those who knew him, loved him, and walked with him on this journey — may we hold each other close during this time. Let us carry forward his legacy by continuing to make space for creativity, truth, vulnerability, and love — the things Warren stood for with every breath.
We will be sharing more soon about ways we will come together to honor his life, celebrate his legacy, and ensure that his memory lives on in the heart of Warehouse 3 and beyond.
Rest in power, Warren. Thank you for everything.
With love and endless gratitude,
The Warehouse 3 Family
