Beck Tickets – One Name, Many Different Styles
Like the last pea, Beck has been hard to pin down as an artist, and Beck tickets are hard to pin down once his concert dates have been set. Beck’s career has spanned so many years, and his musical performances have crossed into so many different genres that one must not box this artist into one category or another, lest Beck move in another direction after this publication. One thing about Beck has remained throughout his career, and that is his adoring fan base.
Born of a Canadian musician and a visual artist named Bibbe, Bek David Campbell was raised as a scientologist. When his father left him at a young age, the perceptive and curious Beck was raised by his mother and brother in Los Angeles, where his mother’s artistic influence and the culturally diverse musical sounds of the city would have a long-lasting affect on Beck’s career. Beck dropped out of high school to travel and educate himself, staying for a time in Germany with his grandfather, a successful Fluxus artist in Cologne. He then popped up in L.A. in his early twenties, busking and working odd jobs, all the while sleeping in a shed.
After some success in early productions at the KXLU radio station under a fledgling label, Beck was discovered and signed a contract with Geffen Records. And the rest, as they say, is history. Beck’s first great album, Mellow Gold catapulted him to stardom. The debut of his most famous work, the album Odelay in 1996, was met with widespread acclaim in the music industry. Fans got to see Beck for the first time on MTV in the oft-played video for “Where Its At.” The song “Loser” was to be his quintessential hit.
After Odelay, Beck went off into different directions, never doing anything particularly reminiscent of any one artist or genre for more than a little while. Mutations, Midnight Vultures, Sea Change, Guero, and The Information all sold well to the base of fans he had earned and inspired with Mellow Gold.
If Beck happens to play one of his more danceable songs while on stage, then you might be in store for an impromptu exhibition of pop and lock break dancing moves. Beck is known to do a very good “Robot” on stage. He can play many different instruments, his favorite being a Vintage Danelectro Silvertone.
The guitar and drums sound of Beck’s early days gave way to more electronic and psychedelic rock, which gave way to an experiment into country and folk rock. Who knows what Beck will try next? If you get Beck tickets, you might just be in store for something completely different.
