The 26-time Grammy-winning singer-songwriter discusses what she feels has recently attracted artists to bluegrass and performs music from her new CD, “Paper Airplane.”


Since becoming a music business pro at age 14, when she signed with Rounder Records as a fiddler, Alison Krauss has become the most recognized face in contemporary bluegrass. Not only has she helped expose the genre to a new audience, but she’s also earned a record-breaking 26 Grammys—as a solo artist and part of a duet, with her renowned backup band Union Station and as a record producer.
She’s made multiple guest appearances on other records and contributed to numerous film soundtracks. Krauss’ most recent album, “Paper Airplane,” is her first of all-new recordings with Union Station since 04.
