Alison Krauss is an American bluegrass-country singer and fiddle player. She entered the music industry at a young age, She thus far has released more than ten albums, appeared on numerous soundtracks, and helped usher in a new interest in bluegrass music in the United States. Her soundtrack performances have led to further popularity, including the Grammy-winning O Brother, which led to her performance at the 2004 Academy Awards. During her career she has won 21 Grammy Awards.
Alison Krauss has won a record twenty one Grammy Awards over the course of her career as a solo artist, as a group with Union Station, and as a record producer. This is more than any other female artist and tied for seventh most won by any artist overall. At the 76th Academy Awards in February 2004, where she performed two nominated songs from the Cold Mountain soundtrack, Alison Krauss was chosen by Hollywood shoe designer Stuart Weitzman to wear a pair of $2 million 'Cinderella' sandals with 4½ inch clear glass stiletto heels and two straps adorned with 565 Kwiat diamonds set in platinum. I like her song style with pure country and folk, that is very amazing style;
