Jeff Buckley – Hallelujah
Biography
Anaheim, California, USA (1991 – 1997)
He had emerged in New York City’s avant-garde club scene in the 1990s as one of the most remarkable musical artists of his generation, acclaimed by audiences, critics, and fellow musicians alike. His first commercial recording, the four-song EP Live at Sin-é, was released in December 1993 on Columbia Records. The EP captured Buckley, accompanying himself on electric guitar, in a tiny coffeehouse in New York’s East Village, the neighbourhood he’d made his home.
Buckley made his public singing début at a tribute concert for his father called “Greetings from Tim Buckley”. The event, produced by show business veteran Hal Willner, was held at St. Ann’s Church in Brooklyn on 26 April 1991.
By the time of the EP’s release during the fall of 1993, Buckley had already entered the studio with Mick Grondahl (bass), Matt Johnson (drummer), and producer Andy Wallace and recorded seven original songs (including “Grace” and “Last Goodbye”) and three covers (among them Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”, Benjamin Britten’s “Corpus Christi Carol”) that comprised his debut album Grace. Guitarist Michael Tighe became a permanent member of Jeff Buckley’s ensemble and went on to co-write and perform on Grace’s “So Real” just prior to the release of the album.

hey everyone, i know this isnt the place for it but hey shoot me, recently ive started to manage a guy called Lethargic Phoenix and have just uploaded a 4 song demo. It's free to download and i promise it's really good, if your a fan of Jeff Buckley and other such poetic acoustic music then you'll love this. if you fancy a beautiful little 10 minute break head over to this page and listen to them (and like the page to be kept up to date with new songs). https://www.facebook.com/LethargicPhoenix?fref=ts

Some of the notes this guy hits reminds me of Dirty Projectors' lead singer...but of course Jeff is much better overall as a singer.
