In 2014, Jeff Bridges spoke to The Washingtonian about balancing his music and acting careers and maintaining a healthy work-life balance despite his global success. When asked if he believes people’s perception of him has changed since playing a musician in “Crazy Heart,” he explained, “I hope they find me an interesting artist in the musical vein. People do tend to pigeonhole folks, so I guess I expect a bit of that, but I’m hoping people are open-minded.”
Bridges went on to discuss the difference between him playing music as himself versus as a character, as he did in the film. He shared, “When you’re doing a movie, you’re always playing a character, and for me the beginning place for a character is myself, so I think about aspects of myself I might use.” To date, Bridges has actually released three studio albums. The most recent, “Sleeping Tapes,” hit the public’s ears in 2015 under the label Squarespace. In their review of the album, Pitchfork described it as a “remarkable” recording. “His warm-hearted spirit — his evident joy at just being alive — is infectious. Way beyond sleep aids, you get the sense that Bridges would be a hell of a life coach. The Dude abides.”
