GILLIAN WELCH AND DAVID RAWLINGS
Best Folk Album, Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, have been hailed by Pitchfork as “modern masters of American folk” and “protectors of the American folk song” by Rolling Stone. This is the duo’s second time winning the GRAMMY for Best Folk Album. They also received the honor for their 2021 album, “All the Good Times.”
Gillian Welch and David Rawlings are pillars of the modern acoustic music world, whose careers span over 25 years. Both have pursued solo projects and other collaborations but have always returned to their decades-long partnership. Welch was credited as part of the Album of the Year GRAMMY-winning team for her work as producer, performer, and songwriter on the eight times platinum “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” soundtrack, which Rawlings also appeared on as a vocalist. She was simultaneously nominated for her own album, “Time (The Revelator),” which Rolling Stone called one of the best albums of the 2000s.
