Arcadia

Fourteen years on from Paper Airplane, Alison Krauss and Uniion Station present their new album, their first with new new guitarist/mandolinist/co-lead vocalist Russell Moore.

Arcadia is a collection of ten songs that "transcend time, reveal beautiful and tragic truths, and reaffirm why the group remains one of the most influential, widely celebrated acts of the past four decades."

"The stories of the past are told in this music," Alison Krauss said of the new Union Station album. "It's that whole idea of 'in the good old days when times were bad.' There's so much bravery and valor and loyalty and dreaming, of family and themes of human existence that were told in a certain way when our grandparents were alive," she added. "Someone asked me, 'How do you sing these tragic tunes?' I have to. It's a calling. I feel privileged to be a messenger of somebody else's story. And I want to hear what happened."
