Biography

Joseph Henry "T Bone" Burnett III (born January 14, 1948) is an American record producer, guitarist, singer, and songwriter. He was a guitarist in Bob Dylan's band during the 1970s. Burnett has won several Grammy Awards for his work on film soundtracks, including O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000), Cold Mountain (2004), Walk the Line (2005), and Crazy Heart (2010). He won another Grammy for producing the album Raising Sand (2007), in which he united the contemporary bluegrass of Alison Krauss with the blues rock of Led Zeppelin lead vocalist Robert Plant. As a producer, Burnett worked on formative or breakthrough albums by artists including Los Lobos, Counting Crows, Sam Phillips, and Gillian Welch, and later produced albums by Gregg Allman, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, John Mellencamp, Elton John, Sara Bareilles, and Ringo Starr. He produced music for television programs including Nashville and True Detective. He has released several solo studio albums as a producer, including Tooth of Crime (2008), which he wrote for a revival of the namesake play by Sam Shepard.
