Nick Cave

I remember seeing Nick Cave in July 1996 in Wiesen, Austria when he was touring with his Album "The Murder Ballads" and while Kylie Minogue wasn't on stage to sing "Where the Wild Roses Grow" with him, he dressed up in a dress and sang both parts. Fast forward almost 30 years, he has not only proven himself as an entertainer but also as a true poet. When listening to "Bright Horses" or "Push the Sky away" I get goosebumps every time. So just like Florence Welch, Nick Cave is my personal Golden Standard for music.
