Gillian Welch and David Rawlings Win Best Folk Album for Woodland at 2025 Grammys
Briefly

Gillian Welch and David Rawlings won the Grammy for Best Folk Album at the 2025 Grammy Awards for their album 'Woodland.' This album marks Welch's first original material since 2011 and Rawlings' first since 2017. They recorded at their Woodland Sound Studios in Nashville, where they revitalized the studio post-2020 tornado damage. Their single 'Empty Trainload of Sky' is nominated for Best Americana Performance. Previously, they had won Best Folk Album in 2021 for their covers record.
"Woodland is at the heart of everything we do, and has been for the last 20 some years... The past four years were spent almost entirely within its walls, bringing it back to life after the 2020 tornado and making this record."
"Despite being billed as solo albums, both artists contributed on each other's records."
