In The Mid-1970s The Family Including Vedder's Three Younger Half-Brothers Moved To San Diego County California. It Was At This Point That Vedder Who Had Received A Guitar From His Mother On His Twelfth Birthday Began Turning To Music As Well As Surfing As A Source Of Comfort. He Particularly Found Solace In The Who's 1973 Album Quadrophenia. He Said "When I Was Around 15 Or 16... I Was All Alone—except For Music." His Mother And Mueller Divorced When Vedder Was In His Late Teens. His Mother And Brothers Moved Back To The Chicago Area But Vedder Remained With His Stepfather In California So He Would Not Have To Change Schools. After The Divorce Vedder Learned The Truth About His Parentage Mueller Was Really His Stepfather. Vedder Had Met His Biological Father Briefly As A Child But Had Believed That Severson Was Merely An Old Friend Of His Parents. By The Time Vedder Learned The Truth Severson Had Died Of Multiple Sclerosis. During His Senior Year At San Dieguito High School Vedder Moved Out To Live On His Own In An Apartment Supporting Himself With A Nightly Job At A Drug Store In Encinitas. Because Of The Pressure Of Work And School Vedder Dropped Out Of High School. He Joined The Rest Of His Family In Chicago And It Was At This Time That He Changed His Name To Vedder His Mother's Maiden Name. In The Early 1980s While Working As A Waiter Eddie Earned His High School GED And Briefly Attended A Community College Near Chicago. In 1984 Vedder Returned To San Diego With His Girlfriend Beth Liebling And His Friend Frank.

The Music Of The Original Incarnation Of The Band Was Influenced By Duran Duran However After Vedder Joined Bad Radio The Band Moved On To A More Alternative Rock Sound Influenced By The Red Hot Chili Peppers. Musical Style And Influences
Critic Jim DeRogatis Describes Vedder's Vocals As A "Jim Morrison-Like Vocal Growl". Greg Prato Of AllMusic Said "With His Hard-Hitting And Often Confessional Lyrical Style And Jim Morrison-Esque Baritone Vedder Also Became One Of The Most Copied Lead Singers In All Of Rock." Vedder Has Inducted The Doors Neil Young The Ramones And R.E.M. Into The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame And In His Induction Speeches He Has Cited Them All As Influences. Other Influences That Vedder Has Cited Include The Beatles Bruce Springsteen John Mellencamp Led Zeppelin Aerosmith U2 The Who Pink Floyd The Jackson 5 Frank Zappa Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers Elvis Costello Talking Heads Sonic Youth Fugazi Tom Waits Huey Lewis Bob Dylan And The Pixies. Vedder Was Heavily Inspired By The Early Jethro Tull Sound Stating That "I'm A Big Fan Of Jethro Tull And I Listen To This Record Stand Up Every Night Before I Go On Stage!" Vedder's Lyrical Topics Range From Personal "Alive" From Ten "Better Man" From Vitalogy To Social And Political Concerns "Even Flow" From Ten "World Wide Suicide" From Pearl Jam . His Lyrics Have Often Invoked The Use Of Storytelling And Have Included Themes Of Freedom Individualism And Sympathy For Troubled Individuals. Other Recurring Themes Include The Use Of Water Metaphors As Well As The Idea Of Leaving Everything Behind To Start Again Featured In Such Songs As "Rearviewmirror" From Vs. "MFC" From Yield "Evacuation" From Binaural And "Gone" From Pearl Jam . Although Best Known As A Vocalist Vedder Also Plays Guitar On Many Pearl Jam Songs Beginning With The Vs. Songs "Rearviewmirror" And "Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town". When The Band Started Gossard And McCready Were Clearly Designated As Rhythm And Lead Guitarists Respectively. The Dynamic Began To Change When Vedder Started To Play More Rhythm Guitar During The Vitalogy Era. McCready Said In 2006 "Even Though There Are Three Guitars I Think There's Maybe More Room Now. Stone Will Pull Back And Play A Two-Note Line And Ed Will Do A Power Chord Thing And I Fit Into All That." Vedder's Guitar Playing Helped The Band's Sound Progress Toward A More Stripped-Down Style The Songs "Rearviewmirror" And "Corduroy" From Vitalogy Feature Vedder's Raw Punk-Influenced Guitar Playing. As He Had More Influence On The Band's Sound Vedder Sought To Make The Band's Musical Output Less Catchy. He Said "I Felt That With More Popularity We Were Going To Be Crushed Our Heads Were Going To Pop Like Grapes." He Has Also Contributed Performances On The Ukulele Harmonica Accordion And Electric Sitar To Various Pearl Jam Recordings.
