Bruce Hornsby and The Noisemakers

Based out of Williamsburg, VA, 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 while Tupac Shakur’s timeless song Changes builds on The Way It Is and set the stage for many subsequent versions of the track. In 1991 Hornsby collaborated with Bonnie Raitt, playing on her iconic hit I Can’t Make You Love Me. Additionally, Hornsby was a part-time member of the Grateful Dead from 1990-92, performing over 100 concerts in America and Europe.
