Duncan Sheik American singer-songwriter and composer born November 18, 1969 in Montclair, New Jersey and raised in Hilton Head, South Carolina. Duncan Sheik spent his teen years immersed in the music of the Beach Boys, the Smiths, and the Blue Nile. Sheik attended Brown University, where he spent a year playing in Liz & Lisa, a band whose membership included singer/songwriter Lisa Loeb. After heading out on his own, Sheik eventually inked with Atlantic Records. Review: Duncan Sheik is a talented Adult Alternative heartthrob who is still developing his songwriting voice. His work is strong on melody and mood, but his upbeat brand of bittersweet introspection has yet to match the work of Neil Finn or Lloyd Cole. That's not a slam though -- while Sheik's tunes lack a unique point of view, they work perfectly with rainy Saturdays and co-ed dorms.
