Jerry Cantrell is the sonic architect behind Alice in Chains, weaving dark, hypnotic riffs with haunting harmonies that helped define the grunge era. Born March 18, 1966, in Tacoma, Washington, his raw storytelling and soul-stirring guitar work became the backbone of the band’s sound. A master of melancholy, Cantrell’s solo work dives even deeper into his brooding, bluesy roots, proving that his artistry extends far beyond the shadows of Seattle’s music scene.
