Alison Krauss
I think that people respond to honesty in music, so I only choose songs that are the truth for me.
Alison Krauss

When it's open and honest, that's when the real nature of who you are as a vocalist or as a performer, all of that stuff can finally start to become what it's supposed to be. Like a settling into yourself. It's not even a musical thing, it's a whole mindset, a whole acceptance of who you were supposed to be. Life sounds good
Alison Krauss

Alison Krauss

Alison Krauss
I still think of myself as from Illinois.
Alison Krauss
Some things feel really good to sing: there's a physical aspect, but there's more to it - a deeper place you go to.
Alison Krauss
A whole album to one writer - now that would be really interesting.
Alison Krauss

Alison Krauss
If you don't know what makes green, you're going to try every color combination.
Alison Krauss
There are so many great songs yet to sing.
Alison Krauss
It's not that I have resisted songwriting, it's just not something I felt I have had to do. I've just not woken up and thought, I must do this. But I have often heard music that I have instantly felt 'I have to sing that song'
