Nicholas Edward Cave Wiki Biography

Nicholas Edward Cave was born on 22 September 1957, in Warracknabeal, Victoria, Australia, and is an author, singer, musician, screenwriter and composer, best known for being the frontman of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – he is referred to as the Prince of Darkness of rock ‘n’roll. All of his efforts have helped put his net worth to where it is today.

How rich is Nick Cave? As of early-2017, sources estimate a net worth that is at $5 million, mostly earned through the success of his various endeavors, as he’s performed all over the world and released numerous albums. He’s also worked on a number of films, and as he continues his career it is expected that his wealth will increase.

Growing up, Nick was exposed to a lot of literary classics. He was also very interested in music, and joined the Wangaratta’s Holy Trinity Cathedral choir. He attended Wangaratta high school but was expelled at the age of 13. The family then moved to Melbourne, and he attended Caulfield Grammar School. After matriculating, he attended Caulfield Institute of Technology but dropped out after a year to pursue a career in music. He attended his first concert at Melbourne’s Festival Hall.

In 1973, Nick joined a band along with other students at Caulfield Grammar; he served as the band’s singer and they performed covers of songs by artists including David Bowie, Alice Cooper and Lou Reed. In 1977, they changed their name to The Boys Next Door and started to compose original material. They gained popularity and their net worth started to increase, as they played around Australia, and eventually changed their name to Birthday Party in 1980. They established a cult following in Australia and Europe, however, they disbanded in 1984 due to problems between members, as well as drug use. Regardless, Cave’s net worth was well set.

Afterwards, the band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds were formed in 1984. They’ve since become one of the most enduring bands in the industry, and have released 16 studio albums. The success of the band has helped increase Cave’s net worth significantly. They change their sounds from one album to another, exploring various topics and genres. Some of the albums they released include “Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!” and “Nocturama”, which was written using a typewriter. The band’s latest release is entitled “Skeleton Tree” and was released in September 2016. Nick has also performed solo in various tours sometimes accompanied by Warren Ellis on the violin. He also formed the band Grinderman, which was an alternative rock band that has released two successful albums. The band ended its run in 2011 after the Meredith Music Festival. All these efforts have helped add to Nick’s net worth.

Cave has also worked on films, mainly as a music composer, including for “Batman Forever”, “Wings of Desire” and “Faraway, So Close!” He’s also appeared as an actor in several films including “Hellboy”, “The X-Files”, and “Scream”. He’s done work for television programs too, including “The L Word”, “Nip/Tuck”, “Trauma” and “Californication”.

Nick is also an author, releasing his first book in 1988 entitled “King Ink”. He released the follow-up of the book in 1997 entitled “King Ink II”, and he’s written two novels entitled “And the Ass Saw the Angel” and “The Death of Bunny Monroe”. Again, his net worth has benefited.

For his personal life, it is known that Nick dated Anita Lane during the 1970s and 80s; they’ve collaborated together on several projects.

He then married his first wife journalist Viviane Carneiro in 1990 and they have a son; the marriage lasted for six years before they divorced. He then married model Susie Bick in 1999 and they had twin sons. Aside from this, Cave also has another son who was born in 1991 to Beau Lazenby – living in Melbourne, they had no contact in his early years. Nick identified as a Christian in the past, but later mentioned that he is not a Christian but believes in God.

Nicholas Edward Cave Quotes

• [on working with Warren Ellis of ‘The Bad Seeds’] I think I bring out something in Warren that he doesn’t get on his own, and the same for me. I know that because of the difficulty that has always been for me to write songs. The process is very lonely. It was similar for music because I could never really tell, playing the chords on the piano, if the song was going to be great or just dead in the water when I showed it to the band. Now I have a kind of collaborator. It’s just made the process so much more enjoyable and fruitful.
• When I finish one thing, there is a pressing urge to do the next. At the moment it’s threatening to cause a bit of disturbance. If you don’t get your bag off the carousel in time, all the other bags start piling up behind.
• I am not interested in anything that doesn’t have a genuine heart to it. You’ve got to have soul in the hole. If that isn’t there, I don’t see the point.
• There’s only a certain amount of songs you can write about pussy, murder, and God. I still have a few left in me.
• It’s an Australian thing to be dismissive. We find that endearing. Americans don’t. They believe what you say.
• No one will ever be able to read a book by me, or see me in a film, or read about me robbing a bank without seeing me first as a rock singer.
• I want to write songs that are so sad, the kind of sad where you take someone’s little finger and break it in three places.
