From Austin City Limits:
“Sheryl Crow was inducted into the Austin City Limits Hall of Fame on October 27, 2022, by Brandi Carlile. Jason Isbell, Brittney Spencer, Jess Wolfe of Lucius and Brandi Carlile all paid tribute to their friend and icon by performing some of her greatest hits and compositions. Austin City Limits 8th Hall of Fame Honors debuts January 7, 2023 on PBS. Songwriter. Activist. Rock star. Woman. Champion. Mother. Nine-time Grammy winner Sheryl Crow is many things, but at the core, she remains a creative spirit channeling her talents into music that lifts people up, brings them together, and speaks to the truths on the horizon. Twenty-five years after winning her first Grammy, as well as Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, for “All I Wanna Do,” the Kennett, Missouri-born guitarist/vocalist/creative thought about all she’d done, the places she’d been, the lives that’d touched hers — and saw the rich tapestry her journey had become. Crow’s is a career beyond dreams, with songs that defined the third wave of feminism, a rockist’s ability to sweep the pop charts without losing any edge and enough wide-open Midwestern joy to captivate the world. In 2019, Crow released her critically acclaimed album Threads via The Valory Music Co., a collection of collaborations made with and in tribute to artists with whom Crow has musical connections. And in turn, she seeks to inspire people through her music and songs, especially the younger generation. “The passion and ability of our young people to dig deep and express themselves energizes and encourages me endlessly,” Crow says. “It thrills me to see their passion and will to change the world.” The subject of an acclaimed documentary entitled Sheryl, Crow appeared on Austin City Limits in two full-hour episodes in 1997 and 2004, and co-hosted the ACL 40th anniversary special. We’re thrilled to welcome Sheryl Crow to the Austin City Limits Hall of Fame.”
