Terry Callier is an American Jazz, Soul and Folk guitarist singer-songwriter from Chicago, Illinois. Callier began recording in 1963 and, despite retiring from music in 1983, re-emerged in the early 1990s when British DJs discovered his old recordings and began to play his songs in clubs. In the late 90's Callier began his comeback to recorded music, contributing to Beth Orton's Best Bit EP in 1997 and releasing the album Timepeace in 1998, which won the United Nations' Time For Peace award for outstanding artistic achievement contributing to world peace. Callier has released five albums since Timepeace, four of which are on Mr Bongo Records, and has recently recorded with Massive Attack, on a track that reached number 15 in the charts.
