Jeff Lynne Net Worth $30 Million

Jeff Lynne started to play the guitar as a kid, when his father bought him one. He studied Alderlea Boys’ Secondary School, but from 16, long before Jeff co-founded the Electric Light Orchestra with Bev Bevan and Roy Wood, he was a part of several bands, including the Rockin’ Hellcats, the Idle Race, and The Move which soon became Electric Light Orchestra. Their first self-titled album came out in 1971, receiving positive critiques from several music magazines, only boosting the band`s popularity, however, Wood then left the band after several arguments with other members, which left Lynne as the one responsible for the music and lyrics of the band.

Throughout the 1970s, the band`s popularity rose with each album, which only increased Jeff`s net worth. The band`s second album came out in 1973, entitled “ELO 2”, and the same year, the band`s third album was released, entitled “On the Third Day”, which achieved silver status in the UK. Until the end of the 1970s, every album which followed achieved not only gold status, but platinum as well, which only added further to Jeff`s net worth. This include albums such as “Eldorado” (1974), “Face the Music” (1975), “A New World Record” (1976), “Out of the Blue” (1977), and “Discovery” (1979), which was actually the band`s first No. 1 album on the UK charts.

They continued successfully in the 1980s, starting with the album “Time” (1981), which also reached No. 1 on the UK charts. Jeff announced the disbandment of the band in 1986, but before that, they released two more albums “Secret Messages” (1983), and “Balance Of Power” (1986), which also added to Jeff`s net worth.

Jeff reformed ELO in 2000, and since then has released two albums “Zoom” (2001), and “Alone In The Universe” (2015), which is the band`s latest release. After his first stint at ELO, Jeff co-created something of a fun super group, The Traveling Wilburys, which also consisted of star musicians George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, and Bob Dylan; they released two albums, “Traveling WilburysVol. 1” (1988) and “Traveling Wilburys Vol. 2” (1990), both highly successful, before disbanding.

Jeff has also had a respectable career as a solo artist, releasing two albums “Armchair Theatre” (1990), and “Long Wave” (2012), which also increased his net worth. Jeff has been recognized as a producer too, collaborating with numerous artists of the pop rock scene, including Bryan Adams, Tom Petty, Paul McCartney and Joe Walsh, among many others, which has further added to his net worth. Thanks to his talents, Jeff has received several prestigious awards and recognitions, including a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2015, and Golden Note Award from ASCAP in 2009, among others.

Regarding his personal life, Jeff Lynne has been married twice; his first wife was Rosemary (1970-77), and second wife was Sandi Kapelson, with whom he has two daughters. He also dated Rosie Vela. Currently, Jeff is in a romantic relationship with Camelia Kath. His residence is in Beverly Hills, California.

#Trademark
1Has worn sunglasses indoors and out since the mid-1970s
#Fact
1He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Recording at 1750 North Vine Street in Hollywood, California on April 23, 2015.
2He was awarded a star on the Birmingham Walk of Stars in Birmingham, England on March 13, 2014.
3Attended Alderlea Boys' Secondary School in Shard End, Birmingham with Paul Henry.
4Teamed up with Bob Dylan, Beatle George Harrison, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty in the group The Traveling Wilburys.
5Began his musical ventures with an old two-track tape recorder in his parents' living room; Lynne would sometimes overlay so many parts the oxide would wear off the tape.
6Actually worked sparsely with Electric Light Orchestra in the recording studio; band members would learn Lynne's new songs just prior to recording, and usually would hear them next on the radio... shortly before tour rehearsals began. Live recordings of Electric Light Orchestra tend to reflect a rawer sound than their highly-polished studio work, though in performance the accompanying light-show and theatrics well made up for it.
7Transformed his Los Angeles home into a housewide recording studio, with patch bays in every room; used this extensively in making his latest album, the reconstituted Electric Light Orchestra's "Zoom".
8Began Electric Light Orchestra with Roy Wood as a side-project to their band The Move; the side-project soon eclipsed the main one, and The Move disbanded.
9Usually candid and open about his own work and musical ideals; almost never speaks publicly on other topics. Fans who have met Lynne usually found him kind and straightforward.
10Lead singer and songwriter of the rock group Electric Light Orchestra.
11Former member of the rock bands The Move and The Traveling Wilburys.
