Jeff Buckley

Biography

Jeffrey Scott Buckley was an American singer-songwriter and guitarist, born on November 17, 1966, in Anaheim, California. The son of legendary folk singer Tim Buckley, Jeff grew up mostly estranged from his father, carving out his own path in music with a blend of rock, soul, folk, and blues, marked by his angelic four-octave voice. He first gained attention playing covers and originals in New York’s East Village, particularly at Sin-é, a café that became synonymous with his early rise. His debut (and only complete studio) album, "Grace" (1994), is now regarded as a masterpiece—featuring haunting originals like "Lover, You Should’ve Come Over", and his iconic cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah", which would become his most enduring legacy. Buckley was working on his second album, tentatively titled My Sweetheart the Drunk, when he tragically drowned in the Wolf River Harbor (a channel of the Mississippi River in Memphis) on May 29, 1997, at the age of 30. His death was ruled accidental, with no drugs or alcohol involved. Though his life was brief, Buckley's music continues to influence artists across genres, and his voice—ethereal, emotional, and unmatched—remains one of the most captivating in modern music history.

Jeff Buckley: Grace Around The World Jeff Buckley: Grace Around The World (2009) Character: N/A
Jeff Buckley's soaring falsetto was a beautiful freak, and force, of nature, its legacy still echoing in singers from Thom Yorke to Antony. Approximating the track list from his LP Grace, it's as thrilling as the original, with devastating performances from 1994 and 1995 that stretch nearly every phrase into cliffhanger improvisatory drama. And to see Buckley in all his self-possessed glory, trilling like a diva or waxing profound in a contrived TV interview, is to see an artist at his white-light peak.
