Bad Brains vocalist Paul “H.R.” Hudson will undergo brain surgery, Loudwire reports (via Billboard). He revealed the news while recording an upcoming episode of the “Loudwire Podcast.” Hudson suffers from a neurological condition called SUNCT that causes severe headaches. He has been coping with the pain by taking “a cocktail pharmaceuticals” and holistic substances. “I did experience some improvement with these,” Hudson said. His surgery is set to take place on February 21.
Last year, a GoFundMe page was launched to help raise money for treatments. On the page, Hudson’s wife and caregiver Lori Carns Hudson explained, “The headaches come randomly, with no warning, at all hours of the day and night; but for him, they are much worse at night.” She continued, “The intensity of the nighttime headaches is so great that he yells, cries out, groans, and sobs—repeatedly, every few minutes, for most of the night.”
Bad Brains were among the nominees for the 2017 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Hudson was also the recent subject of a biography and documentary, Finding Joseph I.
