Jeff Buckley’s career was just getting into gear when he met an untimely demise. With public acceptance and recognition that looked to only increase, Jeff was already regarded as one of the finest musicians of his generation. Jeff Buckley was the son of legendary folk singer Tim Buckley. His voice echoes his father’s incredible range, although any other influences are debatable as Jeff never really knew his father.
“Grace” - Jeff Buckely’s first (and last) fully fledged album, received critical acclaim. Like his father, his acrobatic voice is used like an instrument. His style is hard to pin down, but you can hear influences from indie, folk, rock, and more.. yet the result is clean and simple - unlike many other multi-genre artists.
