In the early years of her life Welch was exposed to the musical influence of Bob Dylan and Woody Guthrie through her musician parents. Though her first musical attempts in college centered on the hard sound of punk and goth rock, this deviation from her future was short lived. Welch’s career started off steady in Nashville, Tennessee, after she obtained a manager who also happened to work with Alison Krauss, an artist that Welch would later collaborate with. In 1996 Welch released her debut album “Revival” to critical acclaim with poignant hits like “Orphan Girl” and “By the Mark.” Subsequent albums “Hell Among the Yearlings,” “Time (The Revelator),” “Soul Journey” and “The Harrow & The Harvest” charted progressively with each release. Welch has also brought her layered Americana style to soundtracks from “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” on which she collaborated with Alison Krauss and Emmylou Harris, as well as the film “Man from Plains.”
