Sheryl Crow
Since exploding onto the global stage in 1993 with the multi-platinum Tuesday Night Music Club album, the one-time music teacher and studio vocalist from Kennett, Missouri has forged a career to become the finest female singer/songwriter of her generation.
The next two albums, 1996’s Sheryl Crow and 1998’s The Globe Sessions allowed her to further hone her musical talent while spawning classic hit songs and earning legions of new fans. She recorded her triumphant 1999 Central Park Concert for Sheryl Crow and Friends: Live from Central Park, which included duets with some of music's true luminaries.
The new millennium saw Crow’s resurgence with 2002’s C’mon, C’mon, which featured the summertime smash Soak up the Sun. In late 2003, Crow released her first greatest hits album, The Very Best of Sheryl Crow. After an extensive international tour, Crow took a well-deserved rest, from which came 2005’s poignant Wildflower.
In early 2006, Crow was diagnosed with Stage I breast cancer. The event changed her life, and her recovery has reinforced her zest for a full, joyful life. Over the course of her career, Crow has collaborated with everyone from the Rolling Stones to Kid Rock to Willie Nelson. She has won countless awards (including 9 Grammy Awards) and she has sold over 30 million albums worldwide.
Crow continues writing new music and through her strength and perseverance, she continues to be an inspiration to cancer survivors everywhere.
