On Sunday, April 29, 2012, at The Cleveland School of Rock, Jared Koepp will be directing a performance of "Grace & Loss For Words - An Instrumental Showcase", featuring Jeff Buckley's "GRACE" in its entirety
Jared has been inspired by Jeff and his music for over 25 years.
Says Koepp "it's been an absolute joy to watch and instruct my group of 7 young musicians discover and perform these songs, and I'm excited to give audiences an opportunity to hear the album from a different perspective."

4. Jeff Buckley – Grace (1994)
Jeff Buckley may have only recorded one studio album in his tragically brief life (his posthumous sophomore effort, My Sweetheart the Drunk, wasn't quite finished by the time of death from drowning), but 1994's classic-rock masterpiece Grace managed to cement the angel-voiced rock god's legend status all on its own. With its startlingly powerful production from Andy Wallace, Grace is a revelation of studio recording—but it's all about that voice: a mind-blowing, hair-raising canon-blast of beauty and muscle, an otherworldly flame that flickered out far too soon. — Ryan Reed

In the APRIL 2012 issue of GUITAR WORLD (w/Edward Van Halen on the cover--on stands NOW), I (Dale Turner) wrote an article in my monthly HOLE NOTES Acoustic Guitar column on Jeff Buckley's chord voicings and acoustic playing. It's a full-page column and features musical examples in the style of "Lover, You Should've Come Over," "So Real," and "Last Goodbye." I was glad I got to do this!!
The atmospheric chordal stylings of the late, great Jeff Buckley
Jeff Buckley only released one full-length studio album, Grace (rel. 1994), in his lifetime, but in the 15 years since his passing (d. May 29, 1997), his influence endures, often cited as an inspiration by artists like Radiohead, Chris Cornell, Muse, Coldplay, and a host of newer acts.
While much has been said about this one-of-a-kind musician's cliché-eschewing songcraft and unparalleled vocal ability, his guitar playing rarely gets the attention it deserves. In this tribute lesson we'll take a close look at the inventive open-string voicings Jeff Buckley uses in the three Grace songs that feature acoustic guitar: "Lover, You Should've Come Over,” "So Real” and "Last Goodbye.”

There is also a 20+-minute video lesson relating to the article, which I filmed/played on Guitar World's site:

Join us in reaching out with Patricia Arquette to help survivors of the earthquake in Haiti, who continue to suffer so terribly, after so long. Please reach into your heart and give as you can. Don't forget to mention Jeff's name in your donation. Together we can help rebuild Haiti. Learn more at http://www.givelove.org/
“The Hope, Love & Healing necklace is the perfect embodiment of what we are trying to bring to Haiti through safe and sustainable housing, sanitation solutions, and water filtration devices.” - Patricia Arquette
Turquoise, soothing blue and natural, is the stone of healing. The sterling silver hand-cast charms bring hope and love to all that wear it.
"When you work on improving sanitation, like we do in Haiti,you start to really see the big picture. Sanitation is the keystone to solving so many problems in the world-- improving public health, reducing child mortality, recycling and reducing waste, and protecting water resources -- and yet no one is really talking about the problem of untreated sewage or the fact that 40 % of the world’s poorest people live without a toilet. The global community needs to commit resources to finding sustainable solutions.” - Patricia Arquette / Co-Founder, GiveLove
