Eddie Vedder

Eddie Vedder is a rock music vocalist best known as the long-running lead man for the band Pearl Jam. Together with Nirvana, Pearl Jam basically invented the Cascadia grunge movement in the 1990s and banished hair metal to the 1980s forever. Vedder got his first guitar at age 12, and grew up practicing and listening to inspirational artists like The Who. He tried on a few bands before being recruited to Pearl Jam in 1990.
Eddie Vedder would take the world by storm, making the cover of Time magazine, their second album set the record at the time for most copies of an album sold in a week, and the first one was certified not just gold and platinum, but diamond, worldwide. Besides Pearl Jam, Vedder found the time to contribute to the soundtracks of movies like “Dead Man Walking” (1995), “I Am Sam” (2001), “A Brokedown Melody” (2004), “Body of War” (2007), and “Reign Over Me” (2007), and collaborate with the likes of Neil Young, Roger Waters, and Tom Petty, to list but a few.
