Browne, 74, got his start as a teenager writing songs for other artists. "These Days," which he penned at 16, became a minor hit for German singer, actress, model and Andy Warhol protégé Nico in 1967, and the Eagles scored a Top 40 hit with "Take it Easy," co-written by Browne. He also wrote several songs for the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, of which he was briefly a member in 1966,

The singer, whose style includes romantic folk-rock ballads and up-tempo California rock, has his own collection of well-known hits, including "Doctor My Eyes," "The Pretender," "Running on Empty," and his biggest chart-topper, "Somebody's Baby," which was featured in the 1982 movie, "Fast Times at Ridgemont High."
Browne's music took a political turn in the '80s, reflecting his activism, while subsequent decades found him returning to more intimate matters, though his politics remained central to his identity.
Browne, whose fifteenth studio album, "Downhill from Everywhere," was released in July 2021, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004.
