'Alison Krauss' (born
July 23,
1971)
[1] is a renowned
American bluegrass-
country singer and
fiddle player. She entered the
music industry at a young age, winning local contests by the age of ten and recording for the first time on her brother's album at fourteen. She signed with
Rounder Records in 1985 and released her first solo album at sixteen in 1987. She was invited to join the band with which she still performs, 'Alison Krauss & Union Station' ('AKUS'), and later released her first album with them as a group in 1989.
She has thus far released more than ten albums, appeared on numerous
soundtracks, and has been credited by
audiophiles with helping to usher in a new interest in bluegrass music in the United States. Her soundtrack performances have led to further popularity, including the Grammy-winning
''O Brother, Where Art Thou?'' soundtrack, an album also credited with raising American interest in bluegrass, and the
''Cold Mountain'' soundtrack, which led to her performance at the
2004 Academy Awards. During her career she has won 20
Grammy Awards—more than any other female artist and tied for seventh-most among all artists—along with numerous other awards.
Biography
Alison Krauss was born in
Decatur, Illinois, but was raised in
Champaign, Illinois.
[2] She began studying
classical violin at five years old but soon switched to bluegrass. Krauss said she first became involved with music because her "mother tried to find interesting things for [me] to do" and "wanted to get [me] involved in music, in addition to art and sports."
[3] At age eight she started entering local
talent contests, and at ten she had her own band. At twelve she won the
Texas State Fiddle Championship; at thirteen she won the
Walnut Valley Festival Fiddle Championship,
[4] and the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass in America named her the Most Promising Fiddler in the Midwest. Krauss first met
Dan Tyminski around 1984 at a festival held by the Society. Interestingly, every current member of Union Station first met her at these festivals.
[5]
Krauss made her recording debut in 1985 on her brother Viktor's independent album, ''Different Strokes''.
She performed with John Pennell,
bassist and songwriter, from the age of twelve in a band called "Silver Rail". Pennell later formed Union Station,
[6] and Krauss joined at his invitation,
[7] replacing their previous fiddler
Andrea Zonn.
[8] Pennell remains one of her favorite songwriters
[9] and wrote some of her early work including the popular "Every Time You Say Goodbye."
[10] Later that year she signed to Rounder Records, and in 1987, at sixteen, her debut album ''Too Late to Cry'' was released
with Union Station as her backup band.
[11]
1989–1991: Early career
Krauss' debut solo album was followed shortly by her first group album with Union Station in 1989 ''Two Highways''.
[12] Many traditional bluegrass numbers appeared on the album,
[13] along with a bluegrass interpretation of
The Allman Brothers' "
Midnight Rider."
[14] Krauss' contract with Rounder required her to alternate between releasing a solo album and an album with Union Station,
[15] and she released the solo album ''I've Got That Old Feeling'' in 1990. It was her first album to rise onto the
Billboard charts, peaking in the top seventy-five on the
country chart.
[16] The album also was a notable point in her career as she earned her first
Grammy Award, the single "Steel Rails" was her first single tracked by Billboard,
[17] and the title single "I've Got That Old Feeling" was the first song for which she recorded a
music video.
[18]
1992–1999: Rising success
Krauss' second Union Station album ''Everytime You Say Goodbye'' was released in 1992, and she went on to win her second Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album of the year. She then joined the
Grand Ole Opry in 1993 at the age of 21.
She was the youngest cast member at the time, and the first bluegrass artist to join the Opry in twenty-nine years.
[19] She also collaborated on a project with the
Cox Family in 1994, a bluegrass album called ''I Know Who Holds Tomorrow''.
[20] Mandolin and
guitar player
Dan Tyminski replaced Tim Stafford in Union Station in 1994.
[21]
'', a compilation of older releases and some covers of her favorite works by other artists, was released in 1995. Some of these covers include
Bad Company's "Oh Atlanta,"
The Foundations' "
Baby, Now That I've Found You," and
The Beatles' "I Will."
[22] The single "
When You Say Nothing at All" reached the top five on the Billboard country chart; the album peaked in the top fifteen on the all-genre
Billboard 200 chart, and sold two million copies to become Krauss' first
double-platinum album. Krauss also was nominated for four
Country Music Association Awards and won all of them.
''
So Long So Wrong'', another Union Station album, was released in 1997 and won the Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album. Some critics said it was "untraditional" and "likely [to] change quite a few... Minds about bluegrass."
[23] Included on the album is the track "It Doesn't Matter," which was featured in the second season premiere episode of ''
Buffy the Vampire Slayer''
[24] and was included on the ''Buffy'' soundtrack in 1999.
[25]
Her next solo release in 1999, ''
Forget About It'', included her only track to appear on the Billboard
adult contemporary chart, "Stay." The album was certified gold, and charted within the top seventy-five of the Billboard 200 and in the top five of the country chart. In addition, the track "That Kind of Love" eventually became included in another episode of ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer''.
[26] Krauss was married to Pat Bergeson from 1997 to 2001,
[27] and they had one son, Sam, who was born in July 1999.
[28]
2000–present: Current career
Adam Steffey left Union Station in 1998, and renowned
dobro player
Jerry Douglas replaced him.
[30] Douglas had provided studio back-up to Krauss's records since 1987's ''Too Late To Cry''. She thought highly of his abilities, going so far as to introduce Douglas on their album ''
Live'' as "the greatest dobro player the world has ever known."
[31] Their next album, ''
New Favorite'', was released on
August 14 2001.
[32] The album went on to win the Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album, with the single "The Lucky One" winning a Grammy as well. ''New Favorite'' was followed up by the double platinum
double album ''Live'' in 2002 and a release of a DVD of the same live performance in 2003. Both the album and the DVD were recorded during a performance at
The Louisville Palace.
[33]
''
Lonely Runs Both Ways'' was released in 2004, and eventually became another Alison Krauss & Union Station gold certified album. Ron Block described ''Lonely Runs Both Ways'' as "pretty much... what we've always done" in terms of song selection and the style in which those songs were recorded.
[34] Krauss, on the other hand, believes the group "was probably the most unprepared we've ever been" for the album and that songs were chosen as needed rather than planned beforehand.
She also performed a duet with
Brad Paisley on his album ''
Mud on the Tires'' in the single "
Whiskey Lullaby". The single was quite successful, ranking in the top fifty of the
Billboard Hot 100 and the top five of the
Hot Country Songs, and won the
Country Music Association Awards for "Best Musical Event" and "Best Music Video" of the year.
Other work
Krauss has made multiple guest appearances on other records with lead vocals, harmony vocals, or fiddle playing. She has contributed to numerous motion picture soundtracks, perhaps most notably the soundtrack ''
O Brother, Where Art Thou?'' in 2000.
[35] She and co-vocalist Dan Tyminski contributed multiple tracks to the soundtrack, including "I'll Fly Away" (with
Gillian Welch), "Down in the River to Pray", and "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow." In
the film, Tyminski's vocals on ''Man of Constant Sorrow'' became the singing voice of
George Clooney.
The soundtrack sold over seven million copies and won the Grammy for Album of the Year in 2002.
[37] The unexpected success of the album has been partially credited, as was Krauss herself,
[38][39] with bringing a new interest in bluegrass to the United States.
[40] She has said, however, that she believes Americans already liked bluegrass and other less-heard musical genres, and that the film merely provided easy exposure to the music.
[41] She did not appear in the movie, at her own request, as she was nine months pregnant during its filming.
[42] In 2007, Krauss released the anthology "A Hundred Miles Or More: A Collection," which was a collection of soundtrack work, duets with artists such as
John Waite,
James Taylor,
Brad Paisley and esteemed fiddle player
Natalie MacMaster, and newer tracks. The album was very commercially successful, but was received with a lukewarm reception from critics. One of the tracks, "Missing You" a duet with John Waite, was similarly received as a single. On August 11, television network
Great American Country was scheduled to present a one-hour special, "Alison Krauss: A Hundred Miles or More" based on the album and featuring many of the album's duets and solo performances.
Other soundtracks for which Krauss has performed include ''
Twister'', ''
The Prince of Egypt'',
[43] ''
Eight Crazy Nights'', ''
Mona Lisa Smile'', ''
Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood'', ''
Alias'', ''
Bambi II'' and ''
Cold Mountain''.
[44] She also contributed the song "Jubilee" to the 2004 documentary ''Paper Clips''. The ''Cold Mountain'' song "The Scarlet Tide" by
T-Bone Burnett and
Elvis Costello was nominated for an
Academy Award, and she performed the song at the
76th Academy Awards with Costello and Burnett.
[45] She also worked as a producer for
Nickel Creek on their debut
self-titled album in 2000 and the follow-up ''
This Side'' in 2002, which won Krauss her first Grammy as a
music producer. Krauss also recorded a collaborative album, "Raising Sand" with Robert Plant in 2007. It is not yet known whether the two will tour to support the album.
Reception and influences
Krauss's earliest musical experience was as an instrumentalist, though her style has grown to focus more on her vocals
with a band providing most of the instrumentation. Musicians she enjoys include
Lou Gramm of
Foreigner,
Paul Rodgers of
Bad Company, and
AC/DC.
[46][47][48] She cites
Dolly Parton, with whom she has since collaborated a number of times, as a major influence.
[49] Some credit Krauss and Union Station, at least partially, with a recent revival of interest in bluegrass music in the United States.
Despite being together for nearly two decades and winning numerous awards, she said the group was "just beginning right now" (in 2002) because "in spite of all the great things that have happened for the band, [she] feel[s] musically it's just really beginning."
Although she alternates between solo releases and works with the band, she has said there is no difference in her involvement between the two.
As a group, AKUS have been called "American favourites", "world-beaters",
[50] and "the tightest band around".
[51] While they have been successful as a group, many reviews note Krauss still "remains the undisputed star and rock-solid foundation" and have described her as the "band's focus"
[52] with an "angelic"
voice that "flows like honey".
Her work has been compared to that of the
Cox Family,
Bill Monroe, and
Del McCoury, and has in turn been credited with influencing various "
Newgrass" artists including Nickel Creek, for which she acted as record producer on two of their albums.
[53] In addition to her work with Nickel Creek, she has acted as producer to the Cox Family,
Reba McEntire,
[54] and
Alan Jackson.
[55] Adam Sweeting of ''
The Guardian'' has said Krauss and Union Station are "superb when they stick to
hoedowns and
hillbilly music, but much less convincing when they lurch towards the middle of the road,"
[56] and ''
Blender magazine'' has said the "flavorless repertoire [Krauss] sings... steers her toward Lite FM".
[57] In addition,
''Q'' magazine and
''The Onion'' AV Club have said their newer releases are "pretty much the usual," and that although Krauss is generally "adventurous," these recent releases contain nothing to "alienate the masses".
[58]
Voice, themes, and musical style
Krauss generally sings as a
soprano[59] that has been described as "angelic".
She has said her musical influences include
J. D. Crowe,
Ricky Skaggs, and
Tony Rice.
[60] Many of her songs are described as sad,
[61] and are often about
love, especially lost love. Krauss herself has said of her song selection that she looks for "tunes that [she] can relate to" and "if they make you feel like crap, you oughta do 'em." Though she has a close involvement with her group and a long career in music, she rarely performs music she has written herself. She has also described her general approach to constructing an album as starting with a single song and selecting other tracks based on the first, to give the final album a somewhat consistent theme and mood.
She most commonly performs in the bluegrass and country genres, though she has had a song tracked on
adult contemporary charts, has worked with
rock artists such as
Phish and
Sting,
and is sometimes said to stray into
pop music.
[63]Music videos
The video for "Goodbye is All We Have" shows the group traveling, meeting at a
crossroads, playing the song together, and walking away together.
Krauss did not think she would make
music videos at the beginning of her career, and after recording her first she was convinced it was so bad that she would never do another. Nonetheless, she has gone on to make further videos. Many of the first videos she saw were by bluegrass artists, although Dan Tyminski has noted that the
video for ''Thriller'' was very popular at the time she was first exposed to music videos. She has made suggestions on the style or theme to some videos, though she tends to leave such decisions up to the
director of the particular video. The group chooses directors by seeking out people who have previously directed videos bandmembers have enjoyed. The director for a video to "If I Didn't Know Any Better" from ''Lonely Runs Both Ways'', for example, was selected because Krauss enjoyed work he had done with
Def Leppard, and she wondered what he could do with their music. While style decisions are generally left to the various directors of the videos, many —including for "Restless", "Goodbye is All We Have", "New Favorite", and "If I Didn't Know Any Better"—follow a pattern. In all of these videos Krauss walks, sometimes interacting with other people, while the rest of the band follows her.
Performances
Alison Krauss at MerleFest, 2007
Krauss has said she used to dislike working in the
studio where she had to play the same song repeatedly, but has come to like studio work roughly the same as
live stage performances. Her own favorite concert experiences include watching three
Foreigner concerts during a single tour, a
Dolly Parton concert, and a
Larry Sparks concert.
[64] She appeared on ''
Austin City Limits'' in 1992 and opened the show in 1995 with Union Station.
[65] The ''New Favorite'' tour, after AKUS' album of the same name, was planned to start
September 12 2001 in
Cincinnati, Ohio, but was pushed back to
September 28 in
Savannah, Georgia following the
September 11 terrorist attacks.
[66] Krauss also took part in the ''Down from the Mountain'' tour in 2002, which featured many artists from the ''O Brother, Where Art Thou'' soundtrack and was named after a documentary on the making of said soundtrack.
[67][68] ''Down from the Mountain'' was followed by the ''Great High Mountain Tour'', which was comprised of musicians from both ''O Brother'' and ''Cold Mountain'', including Krauss.
She has also given several notable smaller performances including at
Carnegie Hall (with the
Grand Ole Opry),
[69] on
Lifetime Television in a concert of female performers,
[70] on the radio show ''
A Prairie Home Companion''
[71] where she sang two songs not previously recorded on any of her albums,
[72] and a performance at the
White House attended by then-
President Bill Clinton and then-
Vice President Al Gore.
[73]
Awards
Alison Krauss has won a record twenty
Grammy Awards
[74] over the course of her career as a solo artist, as a group with Union Station, and as a
record producer. This is more than any other female artist and tied for seventh most won by any artist overall.
[75] She overtook
Aretha Franklin for the most female wins at the
46th Grammy Awards where Krauss won three, bringing her total at the time to seventeen (Franklin won her sixteenth that night), and performed with
Sarah McLachlan.
[76] The
Recording Academy (which presents the Grammy Awards) presented her with a special musical achievement honor in 2005.
[77] She has also won seven
Country Music Association Awards,
[78] fifteen
International Bluegrass Music Association Awards,
[79] and two
Gospel Music Association Awards.
