|
Emmylou Harris (born April 2, 1947) is a country music singer, songwriter and musician from Birmingham, Alabama, USA.
Harris graduated high school as class valedictorian and won a dramatic scholarship to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It was around that time that Harris began to study music seriously, heavily influenced by artists like Bob Dylan and Joan Baez.
Harris married fellow songwriter Tom Slocum in 1969, and recorded her first album the following year, Gliding Bird. After the album's release, Harris' record label declared bankruptcy. Around that same time, Harris' marriage to Slocum began to fall apart and the couple were soon divorced. Harris, who lived for a brief time on her own with her newborn daughter Hallie in Nashville, Tennessee, was forced, after struggling financially, to move back in with her parents, who were now living in Washington, D.C..
Harris soon returned to performing, as part of a trio with local musicians Gerry Mule and Tom Guidera. |
