Great reaction but I have the impression that you may not be aware that the song that brought you here, "Man of Constant Sorrow", was actually performed by this group and in the movie George Clooney was merely lip-synching. Here’s a live performance, and the singer is Dan Tyminski: ruclips.net/video/EuJ8xEByUf4/видео.html
Robert Earl Keen- The Road Goes On Forever!
Never underrated. Revered as one of the very best. Purest voice ever. Try Patty Lovelace! "You don't even know who I am."
You should react to “I Believe In You” written by Bob Dylan that Alison did on the Transcontinental Sessions.
Welcome to bluegrass, Polo.
She has won 27 Grammy awards over her career. Very underrated singer for sure!
so she was rated best 27 times and she is underraterated ?
@@joetspaulding yes... not by the Grammy awards, but in general. She doesn't get the love publicly that she deserves. I rarely run into people who have even heard of her yet she has the 4th most Grammy awards of anyone. Awards don't always equal public recognition or over all fame. That's what I'm referring to.
@@debbieallan5173 I have to agree! Country has been my family's whole life and I didn't know that! I think she's good, but not many people know who she is. Everytime I talked to someone about her music, they ask who is she?? Quite frankly I rarely ever hear her!
@@joetspauldingOkay we all get the sarcasm
@@bcbro142 I think you’re being too generous here.
The guitar player standing next to her is the singer of the song, in constant sorrow!!!
You like the strings because every musician on that stage is world class. It’s a wonder the stage doesn’t collapse beneath the weight of all that talent. Best of the best.
You mentioned strings and I have to tell you that the man on her right playing the resonating guitar is Jerry Douglas, widely regarded as the finest dobro player in the history of the world. His deft picking complements her voice so incredibly well.
Allison Krauss has a real talent for duets. She and ROBERT PLANT have a great collaboration with a ton of great ones!
You have to hear her sing When You Say Nothing At All. Just beautiful!
Dan Tyminski, who is a member of Union Station was the singing voice of George Clooney 's character in Oh Brother movie. You can find video on youtube of Union Station performing "I am a man of constant sorrows" and Alison also sang a song on the soundtrack.
I saw them in concert and Dan mentioned that movie was his wife’s favorite because it was his voice coming out of George Clooney face. 😂
@@hookedonreactions7649 I saw them too, and Alison is a funny person too. Loved them, great musicianship too!
@@denroy3 yeah, she’s hilarious. She was talking about how she liked to go into a record store and find the saddest song they have - and then make it sadder. 😂😂
She was the one singing "Down to the River"I believe.
Alison Krauss "Ghost In This House"..A MUST HEAR!!
It's one of those performances where the absence of emoting and over-singing only highlights the heart-rending meaning of the words and the perfect synergy of words and music. After hearing it many times, I still can't get through it without weeping.
I love her version of "when you say nothing at all".
yes :)
When you say nothing at all is her original song
In reacent years Allison Krauss has teamed up with Led Zeppelins Robert Plant for a couple albums and tours! I think you will like it!
She's an incredibly underrated and angelic singer.
I love her duet with Phish, If I could…
she can’t be THAT underrated; IIRC she holds the most Grammy awards of any female.
27 Grammys would suggest she's highly rated
@@loadedorygun then she's appropriately rated but underutilized.
Underrated by some perhaps. But by no means all: AKUS has won 27 Grammy awards, so far...
Billy Strings for some incredible bluegrass music and strings playing. Also, checkout Alison's music with Robert Plant (formerly of Led Zeppelin).
some of her other hits are: when you say nothing at all, whiskey lullaby, ghost in this house, til i can gain control again, never cared for you and many others......she is beautiful inside and out...ENJOY!!!!!
@ Trish, 🥃 "Whiskey Lullaby" is an 👍 suggestion by Alison Krauss and Brad Paisley. POLO, 🚨🥺😢 this is a rough, sad, but one amazing song.
Here is a Live version - ruclips.net/video/RxeinEAoq0E/видео.html

Gravity
Part of the beauty of this music is that it's home grown, you can picture these people playing this song just as easily sitting on their front porch!
Want angelic voices? Please treat yourself to this!! By Alison Krauss…
“My Ain True Love” from the movie, Cold Mountain… just close your eyes and dream away. It’ll break your heart.
She’s the best. If you ever get a chance to see her live DO IT!! Something amazing always happens at some point in her shows. For instance, her band says that when she holds certain notes the instruments on stage that they aren’t playing start ringing out because her voice is so in tune. Iv’e seen her three times and something sonically amazing has happened at all three shows.
Alison Krause is pitch perfect, and has incredible breath control. Listen to her sing.When You Say Nothing At All. Also listen to Rhiannon Giddens: Wayfaring Stranger. For Country I love Johnny Cash, and all the songs on the album for the movie about him Walk The Line are great, but especially God Will Cut You Down sung by him when he was old and sick. One of the reasons that I like Country in all its forms is that you can listen to real musicians, and artists who can sing and also play an instrument. One of the best guitarists is Vince Gill. Give a listen to Tulsa Time with him, Sheryl Crow, and Eric Clapton, and Vince alone with Go Rest High On That Mountain. Oh, almost forgot: Linda Ronstadt with Blue Bayou.
Oh I love Rhiannon Giddens.
My grandmother used to sing wayfarin stranger . That ine gets me in the feels to much cant do it without 😭
Check out Wings of Pegasus analysis of Alison . He actually demonstrates her perfect pitch control electronically. She really is a perfect voice
@@user-kg7co9vi5r FIL is awesome 👍
Her voice is one of a kind
One in 10's of Billions!!!👼👼👼👼
Alison Krauss was an award-winning fiddle player as a teenager before she formed her band and cut her first album. (BTW, I've been to three of her concerts, one of them in a little up-close-and-personal club where you could really hear her - and she really does sing that perfectly on key and beautifully. She is as nice a person as she seems on stage too.
Bluegrass is very underrated. I love the songs with a lot of harmonies
have to be truly talented to play bluegrass
The harmonies are second to none, but some of the most skilled instrumentalists reside within the genre of Bluegrass.
@Donald Riddle Yes, you are absolutely right. I love the way that every instrument is given an opportunity to shine in many songs.
When You Say Nothing At All by her is absolutely beautiful.
She is that good.
Her duet with Brad Paisley on "Whiskey Lullaby" is another song you should react to.
That's a soul crusher. 'Go rest high on that Mountain' is another must experience for anyone and everyone. The live version at Carnegie hall shows what REAL singers can do.
Yes to Whiskey Lullaby.
I second that
o m g yes
Yes and I could come up with 10 names easy that could replace Brad Paisley and do just as well or better, can not say the same for Allison, no one comes close.
Jerry Douglas, Ron Block, Barry Bales, Larry Atamanuik, and Dan Tyminski are absolute professionals, the best in the business, and Alison Krauss just tops it off at the supreme amount of talent this band has! They are one of my go to's when it comes to listening to great music. One of my all time favorites, which is a cover from the band Shenandoah, is "Ghost In The House". The live version of that is spectacular! Also, Alison's work with greats like Vince Gill, Brad Paisley, and Led Zeppelin's rock god Robert Plant just cement her as one of the keystones of music and musical talent!
Try Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs (also known as Flatt & Scruggs), Bill Monroe (one of the pioneers of Bluegrass), Ricky Scaggs, or Stanley Brothers.
She was also on the soundtrack for O Brother Where Art Thou. She sings Down to the River to Pray. You might also want to listen to Nickel Creek’s music. They are also bluegrass singers.
She does sing studio. Crazy. I like your thing dude, it brings us all closer.
Listen to "A living Prayer" performed live on the tonight show. That song really shows what her voice can do.
I’ve seen Alison in person many times. That voice is real! She sings like an angel with ease. She sounds just like this video, in person. You are
New Grass Revival is great bluegrass. It’s not a band anymore. John Cowan has a very unique voice. Sam Bush is great check this out. You are pronouncing her last name wrong. It rhymes with House.
!Listen to “A Ghost in this house” Talk about chills!
I’m surprised that you loved the movie.
My silly butt requested you react to Alison without realizing you'd done this one 🤓
Whiskey Lullaby is a duet with Brad Paisley that shouldn't be missed IMO.
Really enjoy your channel. Greetings and well wishes from Oregon.
27 Grammys. She's no secret... Dude, she is incredible.
I love her collaborations with Robert Plant. Bonus Round for sure.
Couldn't agree with you more. Don't get me started on Alison Krauss. What an angel. Beautiful soloist and harmonizes well with anybody. She did an album called Raising Sand with Robert Plant, of Led Zeppelin fame. Fantastic album. Bluegrass is where it's at. Beautiful melodies and harmonies, and musicianship second to none. Great post. p.s.- The song "Freeborn Man" would be a great follow up.
Their voices work really well together.
Thank you! I Love Union Station and Alison Krauss, who has been one of my musical idols most of my life! I like your set!
Watch their whole concert! ❤
The vibrato in her voice is one of the best in music, across all genres in my opinion.
She almost never uses vibrato, because she never misses a pitch, and does not need to cover up the mistake.
Alison Krauss has been singing on stage since she was little.
If Bluegrass had royalty Alison Krauss' family would be royalty...I saw her and her family sing years ago when she was 12/13yrs old...a banner day...sitting on a hill, having a picnic and listening to outstanding music...ps, this is my favorite song of hers for personal reasons
She's such an Angel and those are all world class musicians backing her.
Hi Polo !
This is the band that played in
the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou"
Get the dvd Alison Krauss and Union Station
all live and all excellent !
Alison is a gift from God !
an ugly duckling that became a goddess !
They did the soundtrack for "OH Brother Where Art Thou". I have been lucky enough to see them live in concert twice in Oregon. Watch the whole video of Allison Krauss and Union Station live. It is amazing! ❤❤
2 new women bluegrass singers with beautiful voices are Sierra Hull and Molly Tuttle. Billy Strings is hot new male bluegrass guitar virtuoso. Sierra Ferrel plays bluegrass and old country with great string instruments in her band.
The most beautiful song is Alison singing "River In The Rain."
Union Station sang for the Soggy Bottom Boys in OH Brother Where Art Thou.
Alison Krause has the most perfect voice ever. When she sings, the world stops. Watch her. No matter what she sings, it’s effortless. Exquisite! Listen to her version of “Losing You”. Also, listen to “A Man Of Constant Sorrpw” by Brothers of the Heart!
I also love Alison's work with Robert Plant !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Alison Krauss has been a favorite of mine for a long time. There’s so many great bluegrass bands: Ralph Stanley, Bill Monroe & the Bluegrass Boys, Tony Rice, Sam Bush, Rhonda Vincent, JD Crowe & New South, Del McCoury, the Seldom Scene, the Country Gentleman, Ricky Skaggs, Bela Fleck…a lot of these artists play together in different bands. Some of these artists are deceased, but left a legacy of great music. You can find a lot of them on RUclips. I’ve been a bluegrass fan for a really long time and I keep discovering new bands. Enjoy your search!
AKUS are amazing!! Some of the finest musicians in music! Please listen to their song, “If I Didn’t Know Any Better”. The swells of voices and harmony in this song are mind blowing.
I have said exactly the same thing. I saw Alison and Union Station during this tour, and he is absolutely correct. They are perfect every time. You might as well be listening to an album. But, they have been playing together since Alison was 14 years old. She and Dan met each other when they were 14, and I've seen a video of her playing with Barry when they were both so young!
O brother where art thou!? Awesome film and that soundtrack… You’re so right… The Cohen brothers are geniuses
One of her most overlooked songs is Jacob's Dream. Vocals will blow your mind.
Chris Stapleton and The Steeldrivers, Where Rainbows Never Die. a great bluegrass band. This was before Chris Stapleton became a star of country music.
I saw her and Union Station in 1994 and in 2023 with Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin). Check out anything from Raising Sand or Raise the Roof. The two albums they did together. Both Grammy winners.
She’s definitely live. You can hear her breath sounds in between. She sounds like an angel without any help which is wild in this day and age, I know. I love older country and always will because of the quality voices, the storytelling, music and so on.
Very heartfelt reaction, Bluegrass is so beautiful. I just subscribed to your channel. GOD Bless.
I second the suggestion of doing Whiskey Lullaby. Hauntingly beautiful and with a story that sticks with you for life.
I saw Alison Krauss live once, in 2017 or 2018, and had the same reaction about the quality of her voice: when she began to sing, I expected to hear something less pristine than what I've heard from her on recordings ... it's live, after all. But there it was: this impossibly crystal clear voice coming at us in such high beauty it was almost too much to bear.
If you haven't already heard "Whiskey Lullaby" by Allison Kraus and Brad Paisley, definitely one to experience!
The producer of the "O Brother Where At Thou?" soundtrack was T Bone Burnett who produced both albums with Robert Plant and Alison Krauss. Their first album, Raising Sand, swept the Grammys in 2009.
Allison Krauss is awesome! For all practical purposes, she was my bluegrass entry point. I kind of feel like bluegrass is either fast paced, instrument focused or soothing and gentle. I love the gentle, soothing side (which Allison represents). I'd recommend Nickel Creek, if you haven't heard yet. Try "The Lighthouses Tale". Oh by the way, I can relate to shifting musical interests. I still can listen to much of what I've listened to throughout life but as I got older I find myself being more interested in modern folk, bluegrass, interesting indie, etc.
Alison got her start as a very young girl in the bluegrass seen and progressed into country music and has made many many albums. She also made a few albums with Led Zeppelin front man Robert Plant which I thought was a crazy pair but was wildly amazed at the music they made together.
Been round for ever Allison is an Icon
FYI she was one of the people singing in O Brother Where Art Thou. Gorgeous voice
In the movie O Brother Where Art Thou, the bluegrass family singing/playing are the Cox Family. I went to high school with that family in the 80’s in Cotton Valley, Louisiana. Alison Kraus got that band signed and big and has remained friends with them since. Alison regularly comes to visit our little town and she sang at one of the band members sons wedding two years ago.
Dan Kominski the guitar player in this band was the guy who sang the vocals in "Man of constant sorrow."
I agree with everything you’ve said. Union Station is a great band too.
Welcome to Bluegrass, buddy-roe. The vocalist and musicians sound good because it's Nashville and talent is thick on the ground...I grew up just south of Nashvegas. Anyway, you are right about Alison's voice and the strings. The 'sideways' guitar played with a slide is a Resonator guitar and is commonly called a Dobro...I'm sure you are familiar with the other strings. I think you would also enjoy Rhonda Vincent and Molly Tuttle and I quite like Tina Adair.
Here's your trivia question for the day...who played with Alison Krauss on the 5 Grammy winning, 2007 album 'Raising Sand'? That should take you down another musical rabbit trail. Blessings!
If you enjoy angelic voices such as this might I suggest The Wailin’ Jennys. Specifically ONE VOICE off the 40 Days album. Thanks for all you do.
Alison Krauss is incredible. I've been blessed to see her, with Union Station, five or six times in concert as they came to our small town almost every year. This is a beautiful song, as are all her songs, but actually does not show off her voice or violin talent. Suggestions: Atlanta, Down to the River to Pray, Baby Now that I've Found You, When You Say Nothing at All... just to touch the tip of the iceberg.
Speaking of Oh! Brother Where Art Thou, the "Soggy Bottom Boys" were actually Union Station! George Clooney lip synced the vocals by Dan Tyminski, the big fellow in this video playing the acoustic guitar to Alison's immediate left.
She's actually on the O Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack -- Down to the River to Pray
She's amazing, and Union Station is amazing.
Voice of an angel and an ace musician since she was a kid
27 grammy awards for Alyson
Your so right she is soooo clean and precise...I cry when I listen to this song...long time fan if hers ..you found someone special here sir...well done.
I know exactly why it moves you, bro.
While this is on a stage in an auditorium with mics and amps, they could play this in your living room or on your patio. It's the reality and purity of the wonderful musicicianship that hits you in the soul.
Hope that makes sense.
Appreciate your reactions, man.
Hope that makes
She did a duet with Andrea Bocelli of Amazing Grace that will make you cry. Allison did one with Natalie MacMaster called “Get me thru December.” This came out after I lost my children at Christmas and didn’t think I would survive it. God walked with me.
"Oh brother where art thou" is one of fav soundtracks as well.
I was just listening to Alison Kraus and Brad Paisley - Whiskey Lullaby. When you posted this... Yes I have always loved Alison Kraus. She is true blue grass.
One of my wife's favorites - I got 4th row seats at Merriweather for her birthday, Jerry was guest appearing on dobro then too. A lovely evening.
Alison Krauss & Union Station did a lot of the music in O Brother Where Art Thou
Need to check Roy Clark or Earl Scruggs for some amazing blugrass!
02:29 That is the definition of a 27 Grammy Awards winner s voice!
Allison Krauss and union stations people performed a lot of the O'Brother where art though soundtrack.
Whiskey lullaby , ghost in this house, jacobs dream, she is unnaturally good.
My parents played in a bluegrass band when I was growing up and I was fortunate enough to meet a lot of great bluegrass musicians union station being one of them
There are dozens of great bluegrass artists old and new - it’s my favorite genre of music and has been for years. Anything by AKUS will be stellar. One of my current favorites that has a video is “Hannah” by Authentic Unlimited. An all-time favorite that is just audio is “The Mountain” by Ronnie Bowman. That song is like a bluegrass string orchestra with great harmonies backing one of the best male vocalists ever.
Alison Krauss is my favorite, like you said her voice is angelic/ she collaborated an album with Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin), you should check out their songs
An angel in human form! Try "Ghost In This House"....Beautiful!
So happy you added Alyson Krause and Union Station!
Her breath work is amazing!
2:30 that was my exact thought the first time I heard her. If there are angels, they have to sound like Alison Krauss
Polo. I totally fell in love with Alison Krause in mid 1994, when I heard Alison for the first time. She and the Union Station were performing on a program called " Austin City Limits"- I said the same thing as you: "She has an angelic voice. :-) I still love her. :-) p.s. She has had some vocal cord problems, over the years. Think she is OK now. I know you love her too. :-)
She is incredible in person
She is the Best.
Alison Krauss is wonderful. She and Robert Plant (from Led Zeppelin) have done some amazing music together. Please consider reacting to "Please Read the Letter".
Alison is my favorite.!
Heart melting sweetness
She and Union Station are awesome in concert!
I love bluegrass. The group Dailey and Vincent is awesome too!
Billy Strings Meet me at the Creek at the Ogden Theater for some modern bluegrass. You will dig it.
Jacob’s Dream ranks up there with the Edumund Fitzgerald as one of the saddest story songs ever. She’s so good.
The Voice of an Angel
