Badass Birthday
On this date, in 1964 in Seattle Washington, Chris Cornell was born.
Chris Cornell was a vocalist, guitarist and lyricist for several bands, and also had a solo career. His two main bands were Soundgarden and Audioslave, and he was a major force in the grundge sound out of Seattle in the early 90s.
List of songs:

And among his other works was the theme to the James Bond movie Casino Royale!
He was nominated for 18 Grammys and won 3.
Sadly, he committed suicide by hanging in 2017 in a Detroit hotel room just an hour after a performance. He struggled with depression all his life.
Nonetheless, that's a pretty impressive repetoire, a pertty badass one actually.
