Alison Krauss: Jack of All Trades

October 31, 2007 by Jo Minor 


If you haven?t heard of Alison Krauss, well, you should.

?

A singer, musician and producer, Krauss has worked with names like Sting, James Taylor, Dolly Parton and Alan Jackson. Her latest project: Robert Plant. If that name sounds familiar, Plant is the vocalist of Led Zeppelin.

?

The singers have known each other for some time, despite their age: Krauss is 36, Plant is 59. The project, however, will be groundbreaking for the both of them ? Plant will be required to sing harmony ? something he doesn?t do a lot ? and Krauss will have to tackle songs that contain lyrical themes unfamiliar to her.

?

Still ,it sounds like a pretty awesome project!
