Harmony at its best!
Although Allison hasn't written songs of her own that I'm aware of, she covers others beautifully, fantastic voice and harmonies and the inclusion of gospel songs was a plus in my opinion! Great show!

Third time to see Alison and she was fabulous again! Was extra special with the Cox family joining her this time!

A little disappointed.
I have really enjoyed seeing shows at Winstar. The venue is small enough that there is no bad seat, and I've always enjoyed my time there. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with this show. I've been a long-time fan and was really looking forward to it, but I didn't hear much of the music I love from Alison Krauss. I thought the show was really short and she only did a lot of her gospel-type music. Disappointing, but I would have regretted not seeing her, so now I know!

Alison Kraus and her band were amazing. Brought tears to my eyes. We had such a wonderful time I immediately got online to see where they were next. We are going to see them again on Friday in NOLA! Can’t wait!

Alison Krauss sings like an angel!

Alison Krauss - beautiful voice, great show!
Alison Krauss sang non-stop for almost an hour and a half. No filler songs, very little dialog, no stupid light shows or musician show offs just pure unadulterated Bluegrass Music. The musicianship was outstanding, the sound was amazing, and the stage ambience fitted the show like a glove. The venue was small but that made for a cozy show...almost like a high school auditorium. We will definitely be back to the Winstar for more shows.
Alison Krauss is largely responsible for keeping bluegrass music alive and well in the U.S., and she’s got the awards to prove it. The singer-songwriter has received 27 Grammy Awards, making her the most awarded female artist in all of Grammy history — not too shabby for 42 short years. Krauss is a nationwide favorite in concert and has been performing onstage since the early 90s and selling out tours across North America since the early 2000s. She loves taking the stage just as much as recording in the studio, and ticket holders get to hear her soulful, soothing soprano up close, in addition to seeing her expertly play the fiddle, piano and mandolin. Her last studio album was 1999's Forget About It, which hit No. 5 on the Top Country Albums chart.
This bluegrass-country singer has been writing and performing her own music since she was a teenager. She put out her first album with the highly acclaimed Union Station band in 1985 and has since released 14 albums. The star’s first album to rise to the Billboard chart’s was 1990's I’ve Got That Old Feeling, which also scored her first Grammy award. Her next few albums also saw massive success, then New Favorite came out in 2001 and solidified her career as a solid country and bluegrass artist. Lonely Runs Both Ways was released in 2004 and quickly became a gold-certified album. She received heaps of acclaim for her contribution to the successful "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack as well. Touted as being one of the most influential people in country music today, Alison Krauss is a wonder to witness onstage and an adventurous and fun departure from traditional pop music.
