Alison Krauss Encouraged
by her parents to learn to play an instrument, Alison Krauss
began taking classical violin lessons at five years old. By
eight, she had discovered bluegrass fiddle, and soon began
playing festivals and entering (and winning) fiddle contests.
Although her initial acclaim was as an instrumentalist, soon
her voice was capturing people’s attention.
Signing a record deal with Rounder Records at age 14, her first
release “Too Late To Cry” came out when she was 16. A Grammy nomination
came at 18, and she has gone on to win, collectively and individually,
10 Grammy awards. Since her teens, she has toured with Union Station,
though the band membership has changed several times since she joined
at the invitation of bassist and songwriter John Pennell. In 1993,
Alison joined the cast of the Grand Ole Opry, and in 1995 she released “Now
That I’ve Found You: A Collection” which has sold more than two million
copies and garnered Alison four Country Music Association awards.
Alison maintains a heavy touring schedule with each release, but
always makes time to work in the studio with others, whether it’s
with band member Dan Tyminski or Dolly Parton or Yo-Yo Ma. Alison
is also in demand as a producer. She’s scheduled to produce Nickel
Creek’s follow up album (she also produced the first). Other producer
credits include three albums for the Cox Family, and, most recently,
two songs for Reba McEntire. Additional information can be found
