10 years later and we are back to celebrate Grace once more. The exhibition 30 Years of Grace: Jeff Buckley by Merri Cyr opens Friday the 13th from 6-9pm at Proud Galleries!

20 years ago today Jeff Buckley's seminal album 'Grace' was released. Photographer Merri Cyr took the historic image while Buckley was listening to a Patti Smith song and said of her time photographing him; "Jeff allowed me to photograph him in an uncensored way: while he was playing, being interviewed, at dinner, at rest - everything. He wanted people to see his authentic self as opposed to a rock icon....I think he liked how I saw him through the camera - which hopefully was with empathy."
