Buckley emerged in the early 90s, instantly captivating audiences with his ethereal vocals – a soaring four-octave range that channeled influences like Jeff Buckley and Robert Plant. His music was a haunting blend of alternative rock, folk, and jazz, with a focus on emotional intensity and lyrical introspection. Live shows were mesmerizing affairs, filled with Buckley’s passionate delivery and unconventional song interpretations.
“So Real” (1994), an EP featuring his now-iconic cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah,” was a glimpse into the brilliance Buckley was about to unleash. It showcased his ability to transform familiar songs into his own haunting masterpieces.
