Duncan Sheik launched his career in 1996 with his Grammy nominated self-titled debut album. Sheik is the composer for the critically acclaimed musical Spring Awakening, which went on to win eight Tony Awards in 2007, including awards for “Best Orchestrations” and “Best Original Score”. The album also earned Sheik a Grammy Award for “Best Musical Show Album”. In years since, Sheik has released multiple albums, most recently Legerdemain in 2015 and American Psycho: Original London Cast Recording. The latter, with lyrics and music written by Sheik, premiered on Broadway in 2016 after a sold-out London run. He is currently working on a new album of original material as well as several theatre projects, including Secret Life of Bees (Atlantic Theater Company), Alice By Heart (MCC Theatre), Because of Winn Dixie (Goodspeed) and LOVER BELOVED (The Alley Theatre). Sheik is working on his next full length album, due out in 2022.
