MARK LANEGAN (THE MARK LANEGAN BAND)
 
 
Mark Lanegan  (born November 25, 1964) is an American alternative rock musician and singer-songwriter.  Born and raised in Ellensburg, Washington, Lanegan began his musical career in 1984, forming the grunge band Screaming Trees with Gary Lee Conner, Van Conner and Mark Pickerel.  During his time in the band, Lanegan also started a low-key solo career and released his first solo studio album, The Winding Sheet, in 1990.  Lanegan has also collaborated with various artists and bands throughout his career, including with Kurt Cobain of Nirvana prior to the group’s breakout success with their album, Nevermind, recording an unreleased album of songs by the folk singer, Lead Belly.  Following the dissolution of Screaming Trees in 2000, he became a member of Queens of the Stone Age and is featured on five of the band’s albums.  Lanegan also formed The Gutter Twins with Greg Dulli in 2003.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

Thanks to the good people who contribute to the discography website Discogs, I have information on dozens of credits for Natasha Shneider that show her becoming more and more in demand as a vocalist, instrumentalist and songwriter as time went on.  Natasha Shneider provided backing vocals on the song “People Like You” on the album V (2001) by the alternative rock band Live; and on “Methamphetamine Blues” by the Mark Lanegan Band on their album Here Comes That Weird Chill (2003), as well as “Sympathy” that appeared on the 2014 Mark Lanegan retrospective album Has God Seen My Shadow? An Anthology 1989-2011.
