Mark Oliver Everett, également connu sous le nom de "E", est le chanteur principal, auteur-compositeur, guitariste, claviériste et batteur occasionnel du groupe de rock Eels. Il est réputé pour écrire des chansons qui abordent des sujets profonds tels que la mort, la solitude, le divorce, l'innocence de l'enfance, la dépression et l'amour non partagé. L'approche d'Everett en matière de composition se caractérise par sa profondeur introspective et son honnêteté brute, qui résonne auprès des auditeurs en quête de connexion émotionnelle. À travers ses paroles distinctives, il explore les complexités de l'existence humaine avec un sentiment d'urgence et de vulnérabilité, ce qui en fait une voix unique dans la musique contemporaine.

How does one young man survive the deaths of his entire family and manage to make something worthwhile of his life? In Things The Grandchildren Should Know Mark Oliver Everett tells the story of what it's like to grow up the insecure son of a genius in a wacky Virginia Ice Storm-like family. Left to run wild with his sister, his father off in some parallel universe of his own invention, Everett's upbringing was 'ridiculous, sometimes tragic and always unsteady'. But somehow he manages to not only survive his crazy upbringing and ensuing tragedies; he makes something of his life, striking out on a journey to find himself by channelling his experiences into his, eventually, critically acclaimed music with the Eels. But it's not an easy path. Told with surprising candour, Things The Grandchildren Should Know is an inspiring and remarkable story, full of hope, humour and wry wisdom.
