FIB 5 Minute Web-Doco Nick Cave MASTERS OF MUSIC vol 22 “Legends”

A child of punk, Nick Cave, who twistedly resembles the likes of Johnny Cash, has earned the reputation of a melancholic anti-hero who quickly rose to legendary status. A jack of all dejected trades, Cave has seen success as a: songwriter, poet, writer and singer.

Nicholas Cave is an Australian musician, sing-songwriter, screenwriter, composer and actor. He is best known for being the frontman of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Known as rock music’s ‘Prince of Darkness’, Cave’s music is characterised by emotional intensity and lyrical mediations on themes of death, religion, love and violence. He was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2007.
