Essential Alison Krauss boasts an inspired set of songs from the artist that Billboard calls “this generation’s best female vocalist.”
Chosen from a large and rich back catalogue by the star herself, these 14 wonderful tracks illustrate her remarkable career as a singer, musician and producer. They also highlight her commitment to bluegrass and traditional acoustic, which she portrays even in modern folk or pop songs.
Alison has a unique ability for taking contemporary songs and delivering them in a traditional style. It was this gift that convinced Robert Plant to collaborate with her on the international smash, Raising Sand.
It is a measure of Alison’s extraordinary talent that she has won an astonishing 26 Grammy Awards – the third biggest haul of any artist.
