Apart from lead singer and guitarist Robert Smith, Gallup was the longest-serving original member of the Cure, having spent 40 years with the group.
He joined the English alternative rock band in 1979 and briefly left in 1982 following a clash with Smith.
The two made up and Gallup returned to the Cure in 1984, and save for a health-related hiatus in 1992, has remained with the group since.
