Early life[edit]
Alison Maria Krauss[5] was born in Decatur, Illinois,[6] to Fred and
Louise Krauss. Her father was a German immigrant who came to the
United States in 1952 and taught his native language. Her mother, of
German and Italian descent, is the daughter of artists. Krauss grew up
in the college town of Champaign, home to the University of Illinois
at Urbana–Champaign.[7] She began studying classical violin at age
five but soon switched to bluegrass. Krauss said she first became
involved with music because "[my] mother tried to find interesting
things for me to do" and "wanted to get me involved in music, in
addition to art and sports".[8] At the age of eight she started
entering local talent contests, and at ten had her own band. At 13 she
won the
Walnut Valley Festival
Walnut Valley Festival
Fiddle
Fiddle Championship,[9] and the Society
for the Preservation of Bluegrass in America named her the "Most
Promising Fiddler in the Midwest".[10] She was also called "Virtuoso"
by Vanity Fair Magazine.[11]
Krauss first met
Dan Tyminski
Dan Tyminski around 1984 at a festival held by the
Society. Every current member of her band, Union Station, first met
her at these festivals.[12]
1985–1991: Early career[edit]
Krauss made her recording debut in 1985 on the independent album,
Different Strokes, featuring her brother Viktor Krauss, Swamp Weiss
and Jim Hoiles. From the age of 12 she performed with bassist and
songwriter John Pennell in a band called "Silver Rail", replacing
their previous fiddler Andrea Zonn.[13] Pennell later changed the
band's name to Union Station after another band was discovered with
the name Silver Rail.[14] Pennell remains one of her favorite
songwriters[15] and wrote some of her early work including the popular
"Every Time You Say Goodbye".
Later that year, she signed to Rounder Records, and in 1987, at 16,
she released her debut album Too Late to Cry with Union Station as her
backup band.[16]
Krauss' debut solo album was quickly followed by her first group album
with Union Station in 1989, Two Highways.[17] The album includes the
traditional tunes "Wild Bill Jones" and "Beaumont Rag", along with a
bluegrass interpretation of The Allman Brothers' "Midnight Rider".
Krauss' contract with Rounder required her to alternate between
releasing a solo album and an album with Union Station, 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. 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, and the title single
"I've Got That Old Feeling" was the first song for which she recorded
a music video.

Grammy Award
Grammy Award for
Best Bluegrass Album of the year. She then joined the Grand Ole Opry
in 1993 at the age of 21.[17] She was the youngest cast member at the
time, and the first bluegrass artist to join the Opry in twenty-nine
years.[18][19][20] She also collaborated on a project with the Cox
Family in 1994, a bluegrass album called I Know Who Holds Tomorrow.
Mandolin
Mandolin and guitar player
Dan Tyminski
Dan Tyminski replaced Tim Stafford in Union
Station in 1994. Late in the year, Krauss recorded with the band
Shenandoah on its single "Somewhere in the Vicinity of the Heart",
which brought her to the country music Top Ten for the first time and
it won the
Grammy Award
Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals.
Also in 1994, Krauss collaborated with Suzy Bogguss, Kathy Mattea, and
Crosby, Stills, and Nash to contribute "Teach Your Children" to the
AIDS benefit album
Red Hot + Country
Red Hot + Country produced by the Red Hot
Organization. In 1997, she recorded vocals and violin for "Half a
Mind", on Tommy Shaw's
7 Deadly Zens
7 Deadly Zens album.
Now That I've Found You: A Collection, 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' & Dan Schafer's "Baby, Now That I've Found You",
which was used in the Australian hit comedy movie The Castle, and The
Beatles' "I Will".[21] A cover of Keith Whitley's "When You Say
Nothing at All" reached number three on the Billboard country
chart;[22] the album peaked in the top fifteen on the all-genre
Billboard 200
Billboard 200 chart, and sold two million copies to become Krauss'
first double-platinum album.[23] Krauss also was nominated for four
Country Music Association Awards and won all of them.[24]
So Long So Wrong, another Union Station album, was released in 1997
and won the
Grammy Award
Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album. One critic said its
sound was "rather untraditional" and "likely [to] change quite a few
... minds about bluegrass."[25] 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[26] and was included on the Buffy
soundtrack in 1999.
Her next solo release in 1999, Forget About It, included one of her
two tracks 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
Billboard 200 and in the top five of the country
chart.
In addition, the track "That Kind of Love" was included in another
episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.[27]
2000–present: Current career[edit]
Adam Steffey left Union Station in 1998, and was replaced with
renowned
Dobro
Dobro player Jerry Douglas.[28] Douglas had provided studio
back-up to Krauss' records since 1987's Too Late to Cry. Their next
album, New Favorite, was released on August 14, 2001. 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
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
The Louisville Palace and both the
album and DVD have been certified double Platinum. Also in 2002 she
played a singing voice for one of the characters in "Eight Crazy
Nights."
Lonely Runs Both Ways
Lonely Runs Both Ways was released in 2004, and eventually became
another
Alison Krauss
Alison Krauss & Union Station gold certified album. Ron
Block described
Lonely Runs Both Ways
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.[29] Krauss 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.[8] She also performed
a duet with
Brad Paisley
Brad Paisley on his album
Mud on the Tires
Mud on the Tires in the single
"Whiskey Lullaby". The single was quickly ranked in the top fifty of
the
Billboard Hot 100
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.
In 2007, Krauss and
Robert Plant
Robert Plant released the collaborative album
entitled Raising Sand. RIAA-certified platinum, the album was
nominated for and won 5 Grammy Awards[30][31] at the 51st Annual
Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, Best Contemporary
Folk/Americana Album, and Record of the Year ("Please Read the
Letter"). Krauss and Plant recorded a Crossroads special in October
2007 for the
Country Music Television
Country Music Television network, which first aired on
February 12, 2008.
Krauss in 2007
Returning with Union Station, Krauss released a new album called Paper
Airplane on April 12, 2011,[2][32] the follow-up album to Lonely Runs
Both Ways (2004). Mike Shipley, the recording and mixing engineer for
the album, said that it took a lot of time to do the album because of
Krauss' non-stop migraines[33][34]
In 2014, she and her band Union Station toured with
Willie Nelson
Willie Nelson and
Family, with special guests Kacey Musgraves, and The Devil Makes
Three.[35][36][37][38]
Capitol Records
Capitol Records released Windy City, an album of country and bluegrass
classics, produced by
Buddy Cannon and her first solo release in 17
years, on February 17, 2017.[39] Krauss received two nominations at
the
60th Annual Grammy Awards
60th Annual Grammy Awards for
Best Country Solo Performance
Best Country Solo Performance and
Best American Roots Performance.
Other work[edit]

Robert Plant
Robert Plant at Birmingham, England's NIA on May
5, 2008
Krauss has made guest appearances on other records on lead vocals,
harmony vocals, and fiddle. In 1987, at the age of 15, she played
fiddle on the album The Western Illinois Rag by Americana musician
Chris Vallillo. In 1993 she recorded vocals for the
Phish
Phish song "If I
Could" in Los Angeles.[40] In 1997 she sang harmony vocals in both
English and Irish on the album
Runaway Sunday by Irish traditional
band Altan.
Krauss had her only number one hit in 2000, receiving vocal credit for
"Buy Me a Rose." She has contributed to numerous motion picture
soundtracks, most notably O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000). She and
Dan Tyminski
Dan Tyminski contributed multiple tracks, including "I'll Fly Away"
(with Gillian Welch), "Down to the
River
River to Pray", and "I Am a Man of
Constant Sorrow". In the film, Tyminski's vocals on "I Am a Man of
Constant Sorrow" were used for George Clooney's character.[41] The
soundtrack sold over seven million copies and won the Grammy for Album
of the Year in 2002.[42] Both Krauss and the surprisingly popular
album were credited[43] with reviving interest in bluegrass. 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.[44] She did not appear in the movie, at
her own request, because she was pregnant during its filming.[45]
In 2007, Krauss released A Hundred Miles or More: A Collection, an
album of new songs, soundtrack tunes, and duets with artists such as
John Waite, James Taylor, Brad Paisley, and Natalie MacMaster.[46] The
album was successful commercially but given a lukewarm reception by
critics.[47] One of the tracks, "Missing You", a duet with Waite (and
a cover of his hit single from 1984), was similarly received as a
single. On August 11, television network
Great American Country
Great American Country aired
a one-hour special, "Alison Krauss: A Hundred Miles or More," based on
the album.[48]
Krauss appeared on Heart's March 2010 concert DVD "Night at Sky
Church", providing the lead vocals for the song "These Dreams".[49]
Other soundtracks for which Krauss has performed include Twister, The
Prince of Egypt, Eight Crazy Nights, Mona Lisa Smile, Divine Secrets
of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood, Alias, Bambi II and Cold Mountain. She
contributed "Jubilee" to the 2004 documentary Paper Clips. The Cold
Mountain songs she sang, "The Scarlet Tide" with
T Bone Burnett
T Bone Burnett and
Elvis Costello, and "You Will Be My Ain True Love" with Sting, were
each nominated for an Academy Award. She performed both songs at the
76th Academy Awards, the first with Costello and Burnett, and the
other with Sting.[50] She produced Nickel Creek's debut album (2000)
and the follow-up
This Side
This Side (2002), which won Krauss her first Grammy
award as a producer.
Krauss performed on Moody Bluegrass: A Nashville Tribute to The Moody
Blues'.[51]
She participated in Billy Childs' 2014 tribute album to Laura Nyro,
Map to the Treasure - Reimagining Laura Nyro, performing on the track
"And When I Die".[52][53]
Reception and influences[edit]
Krauss performing live
Krauss' earliest musical experience was as an instrumentalist, though
her style has grown to focus more on her vocals[17] with a band
providing most of the instrumentation. Musicians she enjoys include
vocalists
Lou Gramm
Lou Gramm of Foreigner and
Paul Rodgers
Paul Rodgers of Bad
Company.[54][55][56] Krauss' family listened to "folk records" while
she was growing up, but she had friends, who exposed her to groups
such as AC/DC, Carly Simon, The Rolling Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and
ELO.[57] She cites Dolly Parton, with whom she has since collaborated
a number of times, as a major influence. Some credit Krauss and Union
Station, at least partially, with a recent revival of interest in
bluegrass music in the United States.[43] 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."[44] Although she alternates between solo
releases and works with the band, she has said there is no difference
in her involvement between the two.[45]
As a group, AKUS have been called "American favourites",
"world-beaters",[58] and "the tightest band around."[59] 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"[60] with an "angelic"[59] voice
that "flows like honey".[60] Her work has been compared to that of The
Cox Family, Bill Monroe, and Del McCoury,[citation needed] 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.[61] In addition to her work with Nickel Creek, she
has acted as producer to the Cox Family,
Reba McEntire
Reba McEntire and Alan
Jackson.[62]
Adam Sweeting of
The Guardian
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".[63] and Blender magazine has said the "flavorless repertoire
[Krauss] sings... steers her toward Lite FM".[64] In addition, Q
magazine and
The Onion
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".[65]
Voice, themes, and musical style[edit]
Krauss possesses a soprano voice, which has been described as
"angelic".[59][66]
Krauss at 2011 IBMAs
She has said her musical influences include J. D. Crowe, Ricky Skaggs,
and Tony Rice.[67] Many of her songs are described as sad,[68] and are
often about love, especially lost love. Though Krauss 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.[45][69] She most commonly
performs in the bluegrass and country genres, though she has had two
songs on the adult contemporary charts, has worked with rock artists
such as Phish[17] and Sting,[50] and is sometimes said to stray into
pop music.[13][70]
Music videos[edit]
Krauss did not think she would make music videos at the beginning of
her career. 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.
Dan Tyminski
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
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 "The Lucky One", "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.[12][71]
Performances[edit]
Krauss has said she used to dislike working in the studio, where she
had to perform 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
Dolly Parton concert, and a
Larry Sparks concert.[72]
She appeared on
Austin City Limits
Austin City Limits in 1992 and opened the show in 1995
with Union Station.[73] The
New Favorite
New Favorite tour, after AKUS' album of
the same name, was planned to start September 12, 2001 in Cincinnati,
Ohio, but was delayed until September 28 in Savannah, Georgia
following the September 11 terrorist attacks[74] Krauss took part in
the
Down from the Mountain
Down from the Mountain tour in 2002, which featured many artists
from the O Brother, Where Art Thou.[75][76]
Down from the Mountain
Down from the Mountain was
followed by the Great High Mountain Tour, which was composed of
musicians from both O Brother and Cold Mountain, including Krauss.[71]
She has also given several notable smaller performances including at
Carnegie Hall
Carnegie Hall (with the Grand Ole Opry),[77] on
Lifetime Television
Lifetime Television in
a concert of female performers, on the radio show A Prairie Home
Companion,[78] where she sang two songs not previously recorded on any
of her albums, and a performance at the
White House
White House attended by
then-President
Bill Clinton
Bill Clinton and then-Vice President Al Gore.[79] She
has also been in the
White House
White House again, performing the song When You
Say Nothing at All[80] at country music performances. She also
performed a tribute to
The Everly Brothers
The Everly Brothers at which she sang All I
Have to Do is Dream with
Emmylou Harris
Emmylou Harris and When Will I Be Loved with
Vince Gill.[81][82] She was also invited by
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift to perform
with her at the 2013 CMA's and by
Joshua Bell
Joshua Bell to perform with him in
his Christmas Album, and Bell said that "she (Krauss) is someone I've
adored for so many years now".[83] She performed in Northwest,
Washington, D.C. on January 10, 2015, as a part of "The Life and Songs
of Emmylou Harris:An All Star
Concert
Concert Celebration" which is a tribute
to Emmylou Harris.[84][85]

by Hollywood shoe designer
Stuart Weitzman
Stuart Weitzman to wear a pair of $2
million 'Cinderella' sandals with 4½ inch clear glass stiletto heels
and two straps adorned with 565 Kwiat diamonds set in platinum.
Feeling like a rather unglamorous choice, Krauss said, "When I first
heard, I was like, 'What were they thinking?' I have the worst feet of
anybody, who will be there that night!" In addition to the
fairy-tale-inspired shoes, Weitzman outfitted Krauss with a Palm Trēo
600 smartphone, bejeweled with 3,000 clear-and-topaz-colored Swarovski
crystals. The shoes were returned, but Krauss kept the crystal-covered
phone. Weitzman chose Krauss to show off his fashions at the urging of
his daughters, who are fans of Krauss' music.[99][100]
