Sheryl Crow

 

Sheryl Suzanne Crow is a nine-time Grammy winning American blues rock singer, guitarist, bassist, and songwriter. Her music blends country, pop, and blues rock into one mainstream sound.

 

Her debut album was called Tuesday Night Music Club.  The album featured many of the songs written by Crow and her friends, including the second single, "Leaving Las Vegas". The album was slow to garner attention, until "All I Wanna Do" became an unexpected smash radio hit in the spring of 1994. As she later stated in People Magazine, she found an old poetry book in a used book store in the L.A. area and used a poem as lyrics in the song. To her and Bottrell's credit, they tracked down the author, Wyn Cooper, and he ended up being paid over $50,000 in royalties. The singles "Strong Enough" and "Can't Cry Anymore" were also released. Crow received several Grammy awards in 1994: Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "All I Wanna Do"; Record of the Year for "All I Wanna Do"; and Best New Artist. The album sold 7 million copies and the rest was history for this hot new artist!  See Sheryl Crow LIVE!  Purchase your Sheryl Crow tickets today!
