The 27 Club

It seems every generation must rediscover the 27 club. What Is The 27 Club? Hollywood's Most Tragic Group Explained

On March 30, news broke that Chance Perdomo died in a motorcycle accident. The actor, who was known for his roles in "The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina" and "Gen V" (the popular spin-off of Amazon's hit series "The Boys"), was just 27 years old, making him the newest member of a deeply tragic cultural group known colloquially as "the 27 Club."

The Wiki lists the 27 club as a surprisingly large list of artists who have died at the age of 27. Some of the members include the following:

  • Brian Jones of Rolling Stones
  • Jimi Hendrix
  • Janis Joplin
  • Jim Morrison of The Doors
  • Ron "Pigpen" McKernan of The Grateful Dead
  • Kurt Cobain of Nirvana
  • Amy Winehouse

There are many more members. The Wiki lists the first member as Alexandre Levy, who died in 1892. The most recent entry is Cole Brings Plenty, an actor, who died 5 April 2024.
