ABOUT

Bonnie Raitt is an American blues singer, guitarist, songwriter, and activist. During the 1970s, Raitt released a series of roots-influenced albums that incorporated elements of blues, rock, folk and country. She was also a frequent session player and collaborator with other artists, including Warren Zevon, Little Feat, Jackson Browne, The Pointer Sisters, John Prine and Leon Russell. In 1989, after several years of critical acclaim but little commercial success, she had a major hit with the album Nick of Time. The following two albums, Luck of the Draw (1991) and Longing in Their Hearts (1994), were multimillion sellers, generating several hit singles, including "Something to Talk About", "Love Sneakin' Up On You", and the ballad "I Can't Make You Love Me" (with Bruce Hornsby on piano).

One of the biggest credits to her breaking the substance abuse and journeying towards sobriety was seeing Stevie Ray Braughn become an even better musician when sober. Raitt became clean in 1987, and in one of her interviews after that, she said that she really felt like angels were carrying her around. She had more focus and discipline in her craft, and she also had more respect for herself.—Country Thang Daily—  Bonnie Raitt
