Dream Brother

<p>The highly acclaimed dual biography of father and son Tim and Jeff Buckley two of the most enduring musical icons of the late 20th-century</p> <p>When Jeff Buckley drowned in 1997 the music world was shaken to its foundations not least because of the echoes of his father Tim’s demise. He too had been a brilliant and innovative musician with an extraordinary five-octave voice; and he too had died young twenty-eight in fact after an accidental drugs overdose.</p> <p>But there the similarities end. Jeff hardly knew Tim spending little more than a few weeks with him as a boy. Their careers were very different Tim releasing eight albums in his lifetime including the beautiful HappySad and the extraordinary and still out-there Starsailor while Jeff released just one – the brilliant Grace generally acknowledged as one of the great albums of the 1990s.</p> <p>More than just a biography of two musicians Dream Brother is the story of what happens when The Business hooks up with The Artist ultimately to neither’s benefit.</p>
