Alison Krauss

Did you know that Alison Krauss has won more Grammy Awards than any other female artist?

The Country/Bluegrass performer has won a breathtaking 27 Grammys throughout her career; 9 more than her nearest female rival, Aretha Franklin, who has 18 trophies. In fact, Krauss is currently tied with Quincy Jones as the living artists with the most wins and is only 4 titles behind Georg Solti’s 31.

Shockingly, Krauss has never scored a top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. However, it is highly unlikely that she is bothered given her Grammy collection, among which are a pair of trophies for Album of the Year.
