David Gilmour Net Worth: Pink Floyd Officially Over After ‘Endless River,’ How Much Is Guitarist And Vocalist Worth?

The leader of one of the most iconic rock bands of all time, the groundbreaking Pink Floyd, has made the unavoidable official, stating that Pink Floyd is indeed over; now, fifty years after the band was created, David Gilmour's net worth is understandably impressive.

Although it was through Pink Floyd that David Gilmour's net worth truly started to boost, as it's one of the most groundbreaking bands in music history, in fact the English musician has had a long-standing career that stemmed from it but has gone far beyond Pink Floyd.

Last year, fans were hoping for an ultimate comeback of the classic band after the release of "The Endless River," Pink Floyd's first album in more than two decades, but while it boosted David Gilmour's net worth along with that of the entire remaining band, in fact it was just a farewell to it, as it's now official that Floyd has split.

According to Entertainment Weekly, even though the band has put David Gilmour's net worth among the highest in British musicians (an impressive feat for a country that also includes Elton John and Paul McCartney), the singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist talent is in fact pretty much over being in Pink Floyd.

"I'm done with it. I've had 48 years in Pink Floyd - quite a few of those years at the beginning, with Roger (Waters)," said the musician to Classic Rock Magazine, speaking beyond David Gilmour's net worth. "And those years in what is now considered to be our heyday were 95 percent musically fulfilling and joyous and full of fun and laughter. And I certainly don't want to let the other five percent color my view of what was a long and fantastic time together. But it has run its course, we are done - and it would be fakery to go back and do it again."

These days, David Gilmour's net worth stands at $140 million according to Celebrity Net Worth - even if fans would wish he was here!
