Lucinda Williams
Website:
America’s best songwriter.”—TIME
Critics, musicians and her adoring followers universally hail singer/songwriter Lucinda Williams as a major talent. Her songs are rich in literary detail, from her poetic imagery to her flawed, conflicted characters. To some writers, her evocative singing voice suggests a female Bob Dylan but Townes Van Zandt might be more apt. For the better part of two decades, she’s earned a fan base that could rival that of Grateful Dead fans. Along the way, she’s earned three Grammy awards, released eleven albums and collaborated with artists like Willie Nelson, Elvis Costello, and John Prine.
