He is the frontman and primary songwriter of the indie rock band the War on Drugs,[2] with whom he has recorded five studio albums, and a former member of Kurt Vile's backing band the Violators.
In addition to his work with The War on Drugs and Kurt Vile & the Violators, Granduciel has made guest appearances on albums by The Killers, Beyoncé and Sharon Van Etten.
Adam Granduciel was born in Dover, Massachusetts. His father Mark Granofsky is a first-generation American who was born to Russian-Jewish immigrants.[3]
He attended the Roxbury Latin School of West Roxbury. A French-language pun by a teacher there (Ken Conn) inspired his stage name; "du ciel" means "of the sky" in French.[4] He is a graduate of Dickinson College, where he studied painting and photography.[5]
Granduciel began a relationship with actress Krysten Ritter in August 2014.[6] In February 2019, Ritter revealed that she and Granduciel were expecting their first child.[7] Their son, Bruce Julian Knight Granofsky, was born on July 29, 2019.[8]
