Signed to Rounder Records as a 14-year-old fiddler from Champaign, Illinois, she has become the most recognized face in contemporary bluegrass, a critically acclaimed artist who has brought modern sophistication to the genre while respecting its traditions. She has also sold upwards of 11 million records and garnered 2 Oscar nominations as well as 26 Grammy® Awards, the most for any female artist in Grammy® history.

Also impressive is Krauss’s unwavering commitment to being an independent-label artist who has succeeded far beyond the scope of many major-label artists. She has circulated freely within pop, mainstream country and roots music circles, as a solo artist and with her long-time band Union Station, creating impeccably produced records that appeal to an equally wide-ranging and inquisitive audience. Krauss has continued doing things the old-fashioned way: following her heart and whatever path the music takes her on.

Love the O Brother stuff and the album with Robert Plant. I want to hear some of her solo stuff, but I hate modern country, and I'm afraid that's what I'll get with her. I like some of the traditional stuff, but what is sold as modern country music today is terrible.

Ich liebe Punkrock und mag es sicher laut, doch ihre Stimme ist ein Geschenk. Das ist schnörkellose Schönheit, sanft wie eine Geliebte...Werde ich nun sentimental? I Love You!

What can you say about Alison Krauss. Fantastic Fiddle/Violin player,one of the best singers in any genre, a smart producer and arranger. She and Union Station are just genius. And she has a really good ear for great songs by other people and in the Public domain. That's why she has won more Grammy awards than any female musician, and she is number Three on the list, overall!
