Beck Hansen is an American musician, singer-songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, known simply by the stage name Beck.  Initially pegged as something as a voice of a generation when "Loser" turned into a smash crossover success, Beck did wind up crystallizing much of the post-modern ruckus of the 90s alternative explosion, but in unexpected ways.

Based in the underground anti-folk and noise-rock worlds, Beck encompassed all manners of modern music, drawing in hip-hop, blues, trash-rock, pop, soul, lounge music…pretty much any found sound or vinyl dug up from a dusty crate, blurring boundaries and encapsulating how ‘90s hipsters looked toward the future by foraging through the past.  In another time, Beck may have stayed the province of the underground, but he surfaced just as alternative rock turned mainstream, with his 1994 debut Mellow Gold launching “Loser,” a hit that crossed over with the velocity of a novelty, a notion Beck quickly punctured with a succession of indie LPs delivered in the wake of Mellow Gold, including the lo-fi folk of One Foot in the Grave, delivered on the K imprint.

Two of Beck's most popular and acclaimed recordings are Odelay (1996) and Sea Change (2002).  Odelay was awarded Album of the Year by the American magazine Rolling Stone and by UK publications NME and Mojo.  Odelay also received a Grammy nomination for Album of the Year.  Both Odelay and Sea Change appeared on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
