Eddie Vedder Biography

Eddie Vedder is the lead vocalist and one of three guitarists of the rock band Pearl Jam. Vedder became a crucial figure in the 1990s grunge movement with his distinctive, emotive vocals and introspective lyrics. He joined Pearl Jam in 1990 after sending demo recordings that were later incorporated into their groundbreaking debut album, "Ten."

With Pearl Jam, Vedder has been a defining figure in alternative rock. Albums such as "Vs.," "Vitalogy," "Yield," and the record-setting "Ten" have cemented the band's place as one of the most influential groups of their era. In 2017, Vedder was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame alongside his Pearl Jam bandmates.

Vedder has also pursued a successful solo career. In 2007, he composed the soundtrack for the film "Into the Wild," earning a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song for "Guaranteed." He has released several solo albums, including "Ukulele Songs" in 2011 and "Earthling" in 2022. His solo work showcases his versatility as a musician and is celebrated for its emotional depth and stripped-down acoustic sound. In 2024, he released a single cover of The English Beat's "Save It For Later" for the TV series "The Bear."

Vedder has been recognized by Rolling Stone readers as one of the greatest lead singers of all time, ranking seventh on their "Best Lead Singers of All Time" list. He has also been ranked at number 105 on Rolling Stone's list of the 200 Greatest Singers of All Time in 2023. Vedder is also recognized for his activism, frequently using his platform to advocate for causes such as environmentalism, voting rights, and anti-corporate practices within the music industry.

In 2025, a documentary titled "Matter of Time" featuring Vedder is set to debut at the Tribeca Film Festival. The documentary sheds light on Epidermolysis Bullosa, a rare genetic skin diseases that predominately affects children. Vedder and his wife co-founded the EB Research Partership foundation along with a group of families, where their goal is to find a cure for EB by 2030.
