About Bruce Hornsby
Based out of Williamsburg, Virginia, Bruce Hornsby first rose to national prominence with The Way It Is, his 1986 Grammy-winning debut album with The Range. The title track became the most-played song on American radio in 1987; Tupac Shakur's hit 1993 single "Changes" famously sampled "The Way It Is," setting the stage for many subsequent versions. Hornsby collaborated with Bonnie Raitt in 1991, playing on her iconic hit "I Can't Make You Love Me," and was a part-time member of the Grateful Dead from 1990 to 1992, performing over 100 concerts in America and Europe. Hornsby's own 23 albums have sold over 11 million copies worldwide.
