Americana Album at the 56th annual Grammy Awards as well as two awards at the 2013 Americana Music
Association Honors & Awards Show, for Album of the Year and Duo/Group of the Year. The album also debuted at #4
on the Billboard's Top Country Albums chart.

Produced by Grammy Award winner Joe Henry (Billy Bragg, Elvis Costello, Aimee Mann), The Traveling Kind
comprises 11 duet tracks, including six new songs written by Harris and Crowell with co-writing by Mary Carr, Cory
Chisel, Will Jennings, and Larry Klein. Also featured are new renditions of previous Crowell cuts including "No
Memories Hanging Around" as well as new interpretations of Lucinda Williams' "I Just Wanted to See You So Bad"
and Amy Allison's "Her Hair Was Red."

Of the project, Harris comments, "In the words of Willie Nelson, 'The life I love is making music with my friends,' and
there's no better friend for me to make music with than Rodney. I can't wait to get out there on the road with him and
play the songs from this new record."

Crowell adds, "Emmy and I wrote six of the eleven songs on The Traveling Kind, which was recorded in a six-day span
with our Glory Band, Steuart Smith, and Billy Payne. Joe Henry was at the helm as producer and Justin Neibank did
the recording. The experience was pretty much akin to falling off a log."

A 13-time Grammy winner and Billboard Century Award recipient, Emmylou Harris’ contribution as a singer and
songwriter spans 40 years. She has recorded more than 25 albums and has lent her talents to countless fellow artists’
recordings. In recognition of her remarkable career, Harris was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in
2008. Her most recent solo album, 2011's Hard Bargain, debuted in the top 20 on the Billboard 200 chart and received
tremendous critical acclaim—the Associated Press called it "gorgeous" and said Harris' "silvery soprano is in fine
form," while USA Today praised "exquisite...her unmistakeable soprano, at once grainy and ethereal, still wraps itself
around a lyric with an angel's delicate warmth."

Rodney Crowell is a multi-Grammy Award winner whose songs have been recorded by Johnny Cash, Norah Jones,
Etta James and Grateful Dead among others. His 1988 breakthrough Diamonds and Dirt, generated five #1 singles
and a Grammy Award for the song “After All This Time.” His critically acclaimed works The Houston Kid, Fate’s Right
Hand, The Outsider and Sex and Gasoline were followed by the 2010 release of his memoir, Chinaberry Sidewalks.
Earlier this year, Crowell released KIN: Songs by Mary Karr and Rodney Crowell. The album made its debut at #1 on
the Americana and Country Rock album chart and spent 3 weeks at #1 on the Americana album chart. His honors also
include an ASCAP Lifetime Achievement Award and membership of the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
