While singer and songwriter Aoife O'Donovan is best known as the founder and frontwoman of the string band Crooked Still, she is also one-third of the female trios Sometymes Why and I'm with Her. Her collaborators have been numerous and stylistically wide-ranging, among them jazz trumpeter Dave Douglas, the Goat Rodeo Sessions band, and Kronos Quartet. She has become a go-to vocalist in the American contemporary folk, bluegrass, and progressive Americana scenes. In 2013, O'Donovan issued her acclaimed solo long-player Fossils. The following year, her performance at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival with Sara Watkins and Sarah Jarosz led to the formation of the touring outfit I'm with Her. They released See You Around in 2018 and won a Grammy for Best American Roots Performance. O'Donovan returned to her solo career with the Joe Henry-produced Age of Apathy, following that 2022 album in 2024 with All My Friends, an album inspired by the women's suffrage movement of the early 20th Century.
