About Me |
|
I was born Nicholas Edward Cave (born September 22, 1957) I'm a musician, songwriter, poet, author, and actor.I was born in Warracknabeal, Australia, the son of (librarian) Dawn and (English-teacher) Colin Cave, brother of Tim (b. 1952), Peter (b. 1954) and Julie (b. 1959). In 1989 I wrote my first novel, And The Ass Saw The Angel. .In high school at Melbourne's elite Caulfield Grammar School, I met Mick Harvey, with whom I founded my first band, The Boys Next Door. The band played a role in Melbourne's post-punk music scene of the late 1970s, before changing our name to The Birthday Party and moving to London, then West Berlin We broke up in 1984, and Harvey an myself went on to form Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds with guitarist Blixa Bargeld (from Einstürzende Neubauten), Anita Lane, bassist and keyboard-player Barry Adamson (formerly of Magazine) and guitarist Hugo Race. We recorded our debut album, which was released in 1984, From Her To Eternity, Several musicians have come and gone; Blixa Bargeld (until recently) and Harvey have been the only constants. though over the years the line-up would change to at times include:* Kid Congo Powers * Roland Wolf * Martyn P. Casey (current) * Conway Savage (current) * Thomas Wydler (current) * Warren Ellis (current) * Jim Sclavunos (current) * James Johnston (current) I moved to São Paulo, Brazil, where I married Viviane Carneiro in 1987. We have a son, Luke, born 1991. In spring of 1993, I moved back to London. I now live in Brighton, and I am married to actress Susie Bick, with whom I have twin sons, Arthur and Earl. My music is featured in several of Wim Wenders' movies, including Wings of Desire (where I appears, doing a live performance), Until the End of the World, and Faraway... So Close. Cave also co-wrote and acted in Ghosts... of the Civil Dead, a 1989 independent movie. Also in 1989, I published a novel And the Ass Saw the Angel, to critical acclaim. I also starred in the 1991 film, Johnny Suede, with Brad Pitt. In 1996, Cave and The Bad Seeds released an album, Murder Ballads, which was, as the title suggests an album of songs about murder. A duet with Kylie Minogue, "Where The Wild Roses Grow", was a mainstream hit. After The Boatman's Call, I took some time rehabilitating from a heroin and alcohol habit, before resurfacing with a dark and gloomy album called No More Shall We Part in 2001. After the release of the 2003 album Nocturama Blixa Bargeld announced he was leaving the band (that wanker) to devote more time to Einstürzende Neubauten, leaving Mick Harvey as the only surviving founding member of the band other than Cave himself. The Proposition, a film written I wrote is being directed by John Hillcoat and starring Guy Pearce, Ray Winstone, John Hurt, David Wenham and Emily Watson, has recently finished filming in Queensland.My albums recorded with the Bad Seeds include:*From Her To Eternity (1984)*The Firstborn Is Dead (1985)*Kicking Against the Pricks (1986)*Your Funeral, My Trial (1986)*Tender Prey (1988)*The Good Son (1990)*Henry's Dream (1992)*Live Seeds (1993)*Let Love In (1994)*Murder Ballads (1996)*The Boatman's Call (1997)*The Best Of (1998)*No More Shall We Part (2001)*Nocturama (2003)*Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus (2004) |
