Gillian Welch and David Rawlings are pillars of the modern acoustic music world and their rich and remarkable careers span over 25 years. Their debut Revival was released to critical acclaim. Welch and Rawlings followed up that GRAMMY nominated album with Hell Among The Yearlings, a record that solidified the duo as a force in the folk music scene.
In 2000, Welch was awarded the Album of the Year GRAMMY for her work on the O Brother, Where Art Thou? Soundtrack. Welch and Rawlings were also nominated for Time (The Revelator) which Rolling Stone called one of the best albums of the 2000s and is widely considered one of the best albums of all time.
Soul Journey was the pair’s first experimentation with a fuller,electric sound, and paved the way for the Dave Rawlings Machine first project (A Friend of A Friend).
The Harrow and The Harvest returned to the duet sound and was nominated for 2 GRAMMY’s and won 2 awards at the Americana Honors & Awards. The album garnered glowing reviews and topped multiple year end “Best Of” lists.
The last Dave Rawlings Machine album, Nashville Obsolete, showcased Rawlings’ expanding pallet as a producer, and “Cumberland Gap” from Poor David’s Almanack was nominated for Best American Roots Song.
Welch and Rawlings were nominated for an Oscar for “Best Original Song” for “When A Cowboy Trades His Spurs For Wings”. In 2020, the duo released All the Good Times and
