New Clip: “Once I Was” from Greetings from Tim Buckley

Follow me on this one… This new clip from the dramatic film Greetings from Tim Buckley features Penn Badgley singing as Jeff Buckley covering a song of Tim Buckley’s. Got it? This video clip from the Tribeca Film release shows Badgley as Jeff performing “Once I Was.” Badgley sounds great – I had no idea the Gossip Girl star could actually sing.
 
Greetings from Tim Buckley arrives On Demand on April 16, 2013 followed by a limited theatrical release kicking off on May 3rd in LA and NY.
 
The Plot:
 
In 1991, a young Jeff Buckley (Badgley) rehearses for his public singing debut at a Brooklyn tribute show for his father, the late folk singer Tim Buckley. Struggling with the legacy of a man he barely knew, Jeff finds solace in a relationship with an enigmatic young woman (Imogen Poots) working at the show. As they explore New York City, their adventures recall glimpses of Tim’s (Ben Rosenfield) 1960s heyday.
