Beck
American Musician, Singer-Songwriter & Multi-Instrumentalist; 2015 Grammy Album of the Year Winner
2022 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominee and eight-time Grammy-winner Beck has traveled light years from his emergence as a reluctant generational spokesperson when “Loser” exploded into a ubiquitous 1994 smash. Beck’s singular vision has since seen him utilize all manners and eras of music, blazing a path into the future while foraging through the past.
Surfacing just as mainstream and alternative intersected, no small thanks to his 1994 debut "Mellow Gold," Beck quickly confounded expectations with subsequent releases including the lo-fi folk of "One Foot in the Grave" and 1996’s multi-platinum "Odelay" — which has remained a cultural touchstone for generations.
Beck’s creative evolution has always progressed at an exponential rate. From the atmospherics of 1998’s "Mutations" and the florescent funk of 1999’s "Midnite Vultures", the somber reflections of 2002’s "Sea Change," 2005’s tour de force "Guero" and 2006’s sprawling "The Information," 2008’s acclaimed "Modern Guilt," 2014’s Album of the Year Grammy winner "Morning Phase," the “euphoric blast of experimental pop” (Rolling Stone) that was 2017’s "Colors" and his 2019 “best in a decade” (People) "Hyperspace…" No Beck record has ever sounded like its predecessor — though The New York Times notes a consistent thread: ““Though Beck’s records through the years have tended toward maximalism, a kind of meticulous sonic gorgeousness, melody remains central to his art.”
