Rodney Crowell

Rodney Crowell may well be the most talented country artist of his generation - a singer, songwriter, producer and entertainer who has constantly forged ahead into new musical and thematic territory during times when too many of his compatriots have timidly clung to the straight and narrow. Yet, despite - or perhaps because of - his wide-ranging, diverse musical gifts, success as a recording artist was a relatively long time in coming for Crowell.
