Respected Australian musician Richard Andrew has died after a short battle with lung cancer, aged 58.

Andrew, who was a fixture in the Melbourne music scene in such seminal Australian indie outfits as The Underground Lovers, Crow, and Black Cab, passed away in October, just days after announcing his illness to fans.

'Tragically, Nicolette's hardships didn't end with Richard's passing,' the GoFundMe campaign reads.

'She was already on carer's leave, caring for her mum, who has a terminal brain tumour and has a very limited life expectancy. 

'Now, Nicolette is facing the unimaginable task of grieving her husband while caring for her dying mother. Nicolette is dedicated to her work in palliative care, yet as you may imagine, in this line of work, returning to work right now simply isn't an option.'

The post went on to explain that aside from facing an uncertain financial future, Nicolette is also currently caring for an elderly dog with arthritis and a heart condition and other animals that were 'a cherished part of life with Richard.'

At the time of publishing, the campaign had reached $11,095 of its $15,000 fundraising goal. 

Andrew shared a heartbreaking post to Facebook on October 23, informing fans of his illness.

The post was accompanied by a photo that showed his recent wedding to Nicolette.

'After my last unsuccessful attempt to jump 17 double decker buses - A) this may go someway towards explaining being in a wheelchair and, B) the fact I'm getting married to the beautiful Nicolette Powell, in this photo,' Andrew began the expansive post.

'Alas, although the marriage is definitely true and based on love, the double decker bus is, sadly, not quite the truth. Instead, a few month ago, I was diagnosed with Stage IV metastatic lung cancer, which has been a billy cart ride down s**t street, for the last little while.'

Continuing, Andrew admitted that he was resigned to his fate bidding farewell to everyone who had touched his life.

I am completely reconciled to whatever the future is, however, that future is probably quite limited and I'm in the process of preparing to pop this mortal coil and return to the trees, as it were,' he wrote.

'I cannot overstate enough what an honour and a privilege it has been to know you all over the last 58 years, and to have lived the most incredible, incredible life.'
