小简介
While singer/songwriter Elvis Perkins' folk music has earned comparisons to the likes of Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan, he is also known as the son of actor Anthony Perkins and photographer Berry Berenson (who died during 9/11). Raised in Los Angeles and New York, he started playing guitar in high school and took lessons from Prescott Niles of the Knack. While he did play in rock bands and learned classical guitar, his forte became folk. His full-length debut, Ash Wednesday, was available in early 2007 via XL Recordings. He also plays with a band, known as Elvis Perkins in Dearland (bassist Brigham Brough, keyboardist/guitarist Wyndham Boylan-Garnett, and drummer Nicholas Kinsey). Perkins' résumé includes dates with World Party, Cold War Kids, and the Pernice Brothers as well as contributing a song to the soundtrack of Fast Food Nation.

- @未知生物：******
- @PoTongTong："名门之后Elvis Perkins的老爸是大名鼎鼎的演员——“精神病患者”Anthony Perkins(安东尼·珀金斯)，这位因希区柯克的《PSYCHO》而名声大造的演员为儿子的文艺生涯铺下了一条平坦之路，可惜Elvis Perkins选择的是唱歌。在来到纽约这个文化中心后，Elvis Perkins快速成长，并为很多电影、电视剧的原声献唱。他的风格没有老爸那种神经质，也没有名门的张扬，而是将乡村、布鲁斯融合在淡淡而忧伤的民谣之中，这也和他的父亲在1992年死于由AIDS引起的并发症有关，更悲惨的是，9年后，母亲也不幸去世在那个全世界都震惊的9月11日。"
- @PoTongTong："这张专辑是今年32岁的Elvis Perkins第一张正式专辑，也是这几年伤感经历的展现，从2001年与母亲的相依为命到失去至爱双亲后的情感毫无保留的真挚倾泻出来，无不令人动容。专辑名取自基督教的“圣灰节”，节意于“你是昨日出于灰，来日也归于灰！”个中体会绝非没经历过绝望的常人所能了解…… ”——摘自网络
