Alison Krauss helped bring bluegrass to a new audience in the ’90s. Blending bluegrass with folk, Krauss was instantly acclaimed from the start of her career, but it wasn’t until her platinum-selling 1995 compilation, “Now That I’ve Found You,” that she became a mainstream star. In 1992, Alison Krauss and Union Station released “Every Time You Say Goodbye.” The album appeared in the country charts and Krauss’ videos were shown on Country Music Television. “I Know Who Holds Tomorrow” was released in 1994 and was even more successful. But it was the 1995 compilation, “Now That I’ve Found You: A Collection.” that made Krauss a star. The album reached number two on the country charts and — even more remarkably — went into the pop Top Ten and sold over a million copies. Its success confirmed her status as bluegrass’ leading light in the ’90s. “Forget About It” followed in 1999. A North American tour showcasing some of the album’s stellar musicians followed in summer 2002, allowing Krauss and her band’s popularity to soar. “New Favorite” appeared in November and went gold within four months. A live album followed soon after, and in 2004 Krauss released “Lonely Runs Both Ways.” “A Hundred Miles or More,” a collection drawn from Krauss’ Rounder albums, along with sides recorded for various soundtrack projects and five previously unreleased tracks, appeared in 2007. More recently, in 2011, Krauss and Union Station released “Paper Airplane.” Alison Krauss continues to tour.
