Hire Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds:
Nicholas Edward Cave AO, known as Nick Cave, is an Australian singer, songwriter, poet, lyricist, author, screenwriter, composer, and occasional actor.

Known for his baritone voice and for fronting the rock band, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Cave’s music is generally characterized by emotional intensity, a wide variety of influences, and lyrical obsessions with death, religion, love, and violence.

In 1992, their record, Henry’s Dream, marked a change towards a harder rock sound. Producer David Briggs, known for his work with Neil Young, was enlisted for the recording process. The tour for the album is documented on 1993’s live album Live Seeds and showcases the new group’s aggressive sound.

In mid-1993, the group returned once more to London and recorded Let Love In, the follow-up album. Let Love In expanded upon the fuller ensemble sound that was established in Henry’s Dream and featured contributions from Rowland Howard, Warren Ellis, Tex Perkins (Beasts of Bourbon), and David McComb (The Triffids).

Several popular songs, such as “Red Right Hand” (which featured in the Scream film series and was used as the theme song for Peaky Blinders) and “Loverman” (later covered by Metallica), were drawn from the album.

In 1996, the band released Murder Ballads, their best-selling album to date. Centered on the subject of murder, the album includes a cover of the folk song “Henry Lee”—a duet with British rock singer PJ Harvey, with whom Cave had a brief relationship—and “Where the Wild Roses Grow”, a duet with Australian pop idol Kylie Minogue.

The Minogue collaboration was a mainstream hit in the UK and Australia and won three Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) Awards, including Song of the Year. It was at this time that Ellis of the Dirty Three began regularly working with the band and eventually became Cave’s primary collaborator.

In 2010, Nick Cave was ranked the 19th greatest living lyricist in NME. Flea called him the greatest living songwriter in 2011. Rob O’Connor of Yahoo! Music listed him as the 23rd best lyricist in rock history.

The Art of Nick Cave: New Critical Essays was edited by academic John H. Baker and published in 2013. In an essay on the album The Boatman’s Call, Peter Billingham praised Cave’s love songs as characterized by a “deep, poetic, melancholic introspection.”

Carl Lavery, another academic featured in the collection, argued that there was a “burgeoning field of Cave studies”. Dan Rose argued that Cave “is a master of the disturbing narrative and chronicler of the extreme, though he is also certainly capable of a subtle romantic vision. He does much to the listener who enters his world.”

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds have been described as “one of the most original and celebrated bands of the post-punk and alternative rock eras in the ’80s and onward”.

His discography includes seventeen studio albums, four live albums, four compilation albums, thirty-six singles, five video albums, and thirty-eight music videos.
