Duncan Sheik

簡介

獨立型民謠歌手Duncan Sheik 自1996年發表了他第一張同名專輯後，逐漸轉向電影原聲的歌手使他小有名氣。現年33歲的他來自美國北卡羅來納州，早年長期和祖父母住在新澤西，並在當地學習鋼琴。在他的學校期間轉向電吉他組樂隊，自此開始了民謠寫作。畢業後發表了第一張母帶，從此涉足民謠運動，參加各種大型公開活動獻唱。2001年發表的《Phantom Moon》中他與戲劇家兼詩人Steve Sater合作，展示了他管弦樂的才華。2003年初他和Sater更合作了他們的音樂劇《復甦的夏天》，2006年兩人合作完成百老匯最佳音樂劇《春之覺醒Spring Awakening》，並獲得最佳音樂劇、原創音樂等獎項。 Duncan Sheik早已從民謠詩人轉變成電影幕後獻唱者，在《the Saints》 (神鬼至尊)、《ER》（急診室的春天）、《Great Expectations》（烈愛風雲）等的獻聲，讓人隨著電影的泛黃而漸漸遺忘。

Duncan Sheik became a household name with his very first single, the smash hit "Barely Breathing" from his Grammy?-nominated gold-selling debut album. But his mainstream success may belie the depth of his work; he has scored for film and the stage, produced ambitious records for other artists, and captured audiences around the world with his remarkable voice and songcraft. 'White Limousine' is Sheik's most realized work yet - a set of catchy, thoughtful compositions that are pro-love and anti-war, both perfectly simple and breathtakingly vast. Included in the 'White Limousine' package are two discs, labeled MINE and YOURS. MINE is Duncan's version of these songs; YOURS is a DVD-ROM enabling listeners to create their own versions. Using the software provided, the listener can isolate and remix 'White Limousine''s many sonic layers. This may be the first time a recording artist has released the entire contents of his or her album, instrument by instrument, giving listeners the ability to re-imagine the songs as they see fit.
