I like going driving, too, which reminds me of riding around in the car as a little kid.
The themes of bluegrass and traditional music come from a few generations ago, and the romanticism with that kind of music comes from longing for the past. I have to be by myself, and I have to see and listen to the things that inspired me as a kid. How do you find inspiration in Nashville? At least for me, if I don’t feel absolutely 100% certain I’m ready, it's always going to feel unfinished and I’ll just want to hide under the table every time I hear it. Whenever I've compromised my voice, I just never forget. You really do sound so natural on your records, so ensuring you don’t have to force that is important. I'm just going to keep on waiting a little bit.Ībsolutely, if you strain your voice, that's going to be incredibly harmful in the long-term. I don't know if it's allergies or what, but I caught the flu a few months ago and my throat’s still not clean enough to record something that will be around forever. I've got some tracks that I'm finishing, and we're deciding whether we're going to use them for a project in 2020, depending on how we feel about the collection! I also have some vocals to do on other projects that I haven't got through yet. In the heart of Women's History Month, Krauss spoke with the Recording Academy about connecting to the spirit of bluegrass through memory, working with Robert Plant, and the night she won five GRAMMYs.Īlison Krauss: What top GRAMMY winner record does she hold? But in the midst of those legendary voices, Krauss' radiates, bringing everything together in an arc of amber affection. Raising Sand showcases that vibrance perfectly, especially as it so sweetly connects Krauss' instincts together with those of Plant's and producer T Bone Burnett’s. The roots of her work are innately threaded through generations of nostalgia and familial warmth, an energy that hums through any Krauss recording. At the 51st GRAMMY Awards, her collaborative album with Robert Plant, Raising Sand, won Album of the Year, Best Contemporary Folk/Americana Album, Record of the Year for "Please Read The Letter," Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals for "Rich Woman," and Best Country Collaboration with Vocals for "Killing the Blues." That armful of awards made Krauss the sixth female artist to win five GRAMMYs in a single night-the others being Alicia Keys, Beyoncé, Amy Winehouse, Norah Jones, and Lauryn Hill.Įven after winning a GRAMMY or receiving a compliment from a gushing fan, it's telling that Krauss' first instinct is to call her parents. That kind of golden focus brought Krauss to one of the apexes of Recording Academy history. For a legend of the country and bluegrass world, expecting anything else would be sacrilege. "It could infect what I would want to do next, and I have to be very natural," she says from her Nashville home. That kind of thing could change her creative flow, and she's all about the work.

Love that texture! It’s best to use the Die Brush to clean out the tiny holes on the curvy die (yes I need to use it yet). For the Mint Macaron layer I used the dotty curve die from the Curvy Dies set and then ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the new Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.
