ALISON KRAUSS
 |
Grammy
award winning singer and multi-instrumentalist Alison Krauss headlines
the sixth episode of the second series of Nu Country TV. Krauss, 33, performs the John Pennell penned title track of her 1992 album Every Time You Say Goodbye featuring her band Union Station. The song was reprised on her recent double CD and DVD Live At The Louisville Palace. Krauss accompanied Canadian singer Sarah McLachlan on fiddle and vocals on the latest Grammy Awards. The singer proves why she became a huge selling bluegrass artist long before the O Brother Where Art Thou phenomenon. |
Former child prodigy Alison, born in Champagne, Illinois, has released
10 albums and has won 18 Grammies - making her the leader in her gender.
