Alison Krauss & Union Station Arcadia (CD)

(Down The Road Records) 10 tracks, digisleeve

For nearly four decades, Alison Krauss & Union Station have upheld their legacy as one of bluegrass and roots music's most influential and celebrated bands. Krauss is a 27-time Grammy winner and was inducted into the Bluegrass Music Hall Of Fame in 2021.

Alison Krauss & Union Station, known for their impeccably crafted and ever-surprising sound that crosses the boundaries of roots, country, rock & roll and pop, return with “Arcadia” - their first LP since 2011's critically acclaimed and Grammy-winning masterpiece “Paper Airplane”, which hit #1 on the Billboard Country, Bluegrass and Folk Albums charts.

“Arcadia” was produced by Alison Krauss & Union Station, with additional production by 10-time Grammy Award-winner Gary Paczosa, who has worked with the band many times. The musicians - Alison Krauss (fiddle, lead vocals), Jerry Douglas (dobro, lap steel, vocals), Ron Block (banjo, guitar, vocals), Barry Bales (bass, vocals) and the newest member, the highly acclaimed and celebrated tenor singer Russell Moore (guitar, mandolin, lead vocals) - are five distinct personalities with their own solo careers. When they come together, they transform into an incomparable group of musicians focused on a single goal.
