Robert Plant & Alison Krauss at Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion

In 2007, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Robert Plant, famously known as the singer and music co-writer for Led Zeppelin, released a collaboration album with country and bluegrass sensation Alison Krauss. The album, titled Raising Sand, unexpectedly featured a phenomenal tandem between the two artists. It performed impressively on the charts, peaking at number 2 on the Billboard 200 and topping the Rock charts. Meanwhile, its lead singles, “Rich Woman” and “Please Read the Letter,” were certified platinum in the U.S. and a few other countries. In 2009, Raising Sand won Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards and Americana Music & Honors Awards.

The incredible success of their first collaborative album led to a follow-up effort, Raise the Roof. The 2021 effort peaked at number 7 on the Billboard 200, 3 on Top Country Albums, and 1 on the Top Independent Albums charts. The album was later nominated at the Grammys for Best Americana Album, while its singles “High and Lonesome” and “Going Where the Lonely Go” was nominated for Best Americana Roots Song and Best Country Duo/Group Performance.
