The Associated Press reports that Willy DeVille, founder and frontman for the veteran punk band Mink DeVille, died last night in New York City. The 58-year-old suffered from pancreatic cancer.

DeVille formed Mink DeVille in the mid-70s; they made their recorded debut on the infamous Live at CBGB's compilation in 1976. Their first album, 1977's Cabretta, was produced by Jack Nitzsche. The song "Spanish Stroll" became a hit in Britain. After six albums with Mink DeVille, Willy DeVille launched a solo career in 1987. His 1987 album Miracle featured the song "Storybook Love", which was nominated for an Academy Award after its inclusion in the movie The Princess Bride.
