An esteemed alumni of the Seattle grunge scene that included Pearl Jam and Nirvana, Mark Lanegan recived critical acclaim as part of Screaming Trees, in side projects such as Queens Of The Stone Age and on his own, releasing first solo album The Winding Sheet in 1990.
Often compared to Tom Waits due to his husky, whisky-toned voice, his collaboration with former Belle and Sebastian singer Isobel Campbell led to a stunning album in Ballad of the Broken Seas. Latest solo album Blues Funeral was released earlier this year, described by The Guardian as 'world-weary songs ... like dark postcards from a life well-lived'. Lanegan is rock 'n' roll as it was meant to be.
