After moving to Nashville in the early 1990s\, Welch was launched into the public consciousness when Emmylou Harris recorded a cover of Welch&rsquo\;s &ldquo\;Orphan Girl.&rdquo\; Her career continued to flourish as her 1996 debut \;Revival \;was released to critical acclaim.

\n\n

Firmly on the roots music map following the release\, Welch followed up that GRAMMY nominated album release with 1998&rsquo\;s \;Hell Among The Yearlings\, a stark duet record with partner David Rawlings\, further solidifying the duo as a force in the folk music scene.

\n\n

When Welch served as executive producer as well as a performer on the eight times platinum \;O Brother\, Where Art Thou? \;soundtrack\, she was awarded the Album of the Year GRAMMY Award win\, and was simultaneously nominated for her own \;Time (The Revelator) \;which Rolling Stone called one of the best albums of the 2000s and is widely considered by critics to be one of the best albums of all time.

\n\n

2011&rsquo\;s \;The Harrow and The Harvest \;felt like a sonic cultivation of what Welch and Rawlings had been honing in on and perfecting for decades\, and the awards circuit noticed\, nominating the album forBest Contemporary Folk Album \;and \;Best Engineered Album \;at the GRAMMYs\, Artist of the Year (Welch) and Instrumentalist of the Year (Rawlings) at the Americana Honors &\; Awards\, along with glowing reviews and multiple mentions on year end &ldquo\;Best Of&rdquo\; lists. The duo returned to Rawlings&rsquo\; moniker for their next two releases\, 2015&rsquo\;s \;Nashville Obsolete \;and 2017&rsquo\;s \;Poor David&rsquo\;s Almanack \;(GRAMMY Nominated for &ldquo\;Best American Roots Song&rdquo\; for first single &ldquo\;Cumberland Gap&ldquo\;).

\n\n

Welch and Rawlings continue to tour the world in support of their projects while simultaneously writing\, lending their talents to countless fellow artist&rsquo\;s recordings\, and working to release their highly celebrated catalog on phonograph record for the first time ever.
