Jeff Buckley

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.
