The daughter of Broadway star John Raitt and pianist Marjorie, Bonnie Raitt grew up in LA in a family of artists. Bonnie’s six-string prowess and singing would ultimately land her a major-label deal by 1971. “Bonnie Raitt,” her debut, featured blues classics, as well as her trademark mix of R&B, rock, originals and contemporary songs by great songwriters. It displayed precocious power – chops the performer had honed in East coast coffeehouses and on the road as she’d joined the vanguard of the folk and blues revival. In 1989 came Bonnie’s breakthrough, the hugely successful “Nick of Time.” Garnering four Grammy Awards in 1990, including Best Album. It catapulted the record to #1 and soon she was off on a whole new tour, this time playing to up to 20,000 a night. With “Luck of the Draw” and its hits, “Something to Talk About” and “I Can’t Make You Love Me,” the winning streak continued. 1993’s “Longing in Their Hearts” followed with more critical and commercial success and “Road Tested,” a live tour-de-force double CD and movie, marked the culmination of a career-long dream. Raitt resurfaced in 1998 with “Fundamental.” “Silver Lining” appeared in 2002, followed by “Souls Alike” in 2005. A year later, “Bonnie Raitt and Friends” was released, featuring guest appearances from Norah Jones and Ben Harper, among others. Raitt has received ten Grammy Awards as of 2013. In 2016, Raitt came out with “Dig in Deep.” Bonnie Raitt continues to tour the world.
