I made a statement all my own.

Sales of Grace were slow and it garnered little radio airplay despite critical acclaim. Buckley was raised by his mother and stepfather Ron Moorhead in Southern California and had a half-brother Corey Moorhead. By the summer of 1992 limos from executives eager to sign the singer lined the street outside Sin-é.

After a decade as a session guitarist in Los Angeles Buckley amassed a following in the early 1990s by playing cover songs at venues in Manhattan's East Village such as Sin-é gradually focusing more on his own material. His body was found on June 4 1997. He was the son of Tim Buckley also a musician.
