Since the release of his first album in 1986, Bruce Hornsby has created a most impressive list of credits. From his days in the lounges and bars of Virginia to his days in the Los Angeles music studios to his days with The Range to his current status as a solo artist, Hornsby has always brought something unique to his music.
Bruce Hornsby is a nine time Grammy nominee, and has won three - in 1987 with The Range for Best New Artist for their debut LP "The Way It Is"; in 1989 for Best Bluegrass Recording for his version of his hit "The Valley Road" which appeared on The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's album "Will The Circle Be Unbroken, Volume II"; and with Branford Marsalis in 1993 for Best Pop Instrumental Performance for their song for the Barcelona Olympics, "Barcelona Mona." Bruce was nominated twice in 1996 for Best Pop Instrumental for his solo piano piece "Song B," and with Chaka Khan for Best Song For A Motion Picture for "Love Me Still" from the soundtrack of Spike Lee's "Clockers."
Hornsby's five albums - "The Way It Is" (1986), "Scenes From The Southside" (1988), "A Night On The Town" (1990), "Harbor Lights" (1993), and "Hot House" (1995) - have sold more than eight million copies worldwide. The title cut from "The Way It Is" was the most played song on American radio in 1987, winning ASCAP's Song of the Year award. In Keyboard Magazine's Reader's Poll, Hornsby won six years in a row, including the 1994 award for Best Rock Pianist "Harbor Lights" was the 1994 winner of the Downbeat Readers' Poll Beyond Album Of The Year.
In addition to his own hit records, Bruce Hornsby has co-authored many hits for other artists, such as "Jacob's Ladder" for Huey Lewis and "The End Of The Innocence" for Don Henley. Bruce has played on more than 70 albums in the last eight years, including records by Bob Dylan, Don Henley, The Grateful Dead, Bob Seger, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Bela Fleck, Bonnie Raitt and Shawn Colvin. Bruce Hornsby was also a part time member of The Grateful Dead from 1990-1992, playing more than one hundred concerts with the band in America and Europe. He finally turned in his fourth album, Harbor Lights, for release in 1993. This solo album, which did not feature his backup band, the Range, went gold, and Hornsby toured the U.S. and Canada through the end of the year. He followed it with a similar effort, Hot House, in July 1995, returning three years later with the double album Spirit Trail. Here Come the Noise Makers was issued in fall 2000. Since that time, Hornsby has released a handful of albums including Big Swing Face in 2002, Halcyon Days in 2004, and the jazz-oriented Camp Meeting in 2007. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
