'IT got really weird,' Alison Krauss said, settling down in the comfortable but highly informal living room of her house here. Her large, luminous brown eyes took on a look of spooked bafflement as she recalled the period when her career as a bluegrass singer and fiddler was beginning to take off in a big way.
That was 1995, and although she and her band, Union Station, were already famous in bluegrass circles, she was gaining much more widespread attention for a solo CD, 'Now That I've Found You.' She was 24. A single from that album, 'When You Say Nothing at All,' had just enough non-bluegrass elements -- drums and a piano -- to get on the country charts, where it climbed to No. 2; that's when everything happened.

'I was living in a big old house in Franklin,' she said, referring to a suburb of Nashville, 'and I couldn't really go places freely because of the recognition. I went to get my driver's license, and the clerk looked at my name and looked up at me and frowned and said, 'I can't believe you go out looking like that.' ' Ms. Krauss seemed surprised that she was supposed to look glamorous all the time.
Some people would come right up to her, and others would stare. 'I had trouble sleeping in that old house all alone,' she said. 'At one point I took some pillows and blankets and went into a closet to try to sleep.'
She laughed, then added, 'I mean, it was a big closet.'
For a while, the events of Sept. 11 seriously reduced attendance at many kinds of live performances, but Ms. Krauss and her band have sold out virtually everywhere on a cross-country tour that began in August -- perhaps in part because bluegrass seems to suit Americans' heightened awareness of the nation's history and traditions. Her latest album, 'New Favorite,' the occasion for this protracted tour, has already come close to the half-million mark in sales and is selling faster than any other album she has released, whether solo or with the band.
“Alison helped me to advance my professional learning. For anyone out there thinking about studying online, Alison provides a great avenue for self-growth; take advantage of it! Just keep yourself busy doing things that will upgrade your knowledge. Every time an opportunity to learn comes your way, always grab it.
Her arrangements, more polished than a lot of bluegrass music, flirt with pop while remaining faithful to tradition, and she has a theremin-pure voice and a powerful and charismatic presence on the stage. Along with a number of other American roots musicians, she will take part in a concert of the Grammy-nominated music from the Coen brothers' movie 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?' a soundtrack that prominently includes her, at Radio City Music Hall on Tuesday.
Fame and commercial success seem almost out of place for this collection of gospel hymns and blues and Appalachian tunes, and Ms. Krauss sometimes seems correspondingly uncomfortable with the public recognition she has achieved -- recognition that this year includes five Grammy nominations. Alone or with her band, she has already won 10 Grammys. Still, she remains a little elusive, and for the last five years or so has lived modestly and quietly in a simple house here.
In an interview shortly before she began the tour, she made it clear that more than ever her home was a refuge from the road and that she was still protective of her privacy. She does everything she can to keep her son, Sam, 2, from the public eye, and her liner notes and official Web site offer only career highlights.
The house, whose stone face lends it a sort of Bavarian folk-tale air, is about 20 years old, built by a lawyer who sold it to a fiddler, whose ex-wife sold it to Ms. Krauss for about $300,000. (Exes, an occupational hazard in the country-western business, litter the Nashville landscape; last year, Ms. Krauss was divorced from her husband of four years, Patrick Bergeson, another musician.)
It's a comfortable place, with a driveway that ends next to a backyard lawn fenced in for Ms. Krauss's two dogs, middle-size mutts named Terry and Tom. The back door has concrete steps and a plain wrought-iron railing, with an unplanted planter filled with dirt. On the other side of the driveway is a garage, which is sometimes used as a studio.
Ms. Krauss, now 30, dressed in a loose-fitting light tan blouse, black slacks, black socks with a tan pattern, and rugged brown sandals, greeted me at the top of the steps. She is small and slender, with short blond-highlighted hair. There is a fragility about her, a kind of uncertainty, making her feelings about privacy almost painfully credible.
We walked through the black-and-white-tiled kitchen, its refrigerator covered with photographs of friends and family, its white cabinets showing off a collection of replicas of old-time tin food boxes and cans. Sam followed, trailed by a nanny. Sam goes everywhere Ms. Krauss goes, even on tour. (She and the band use two 40-foot Prevost tour buses, silver palaces with lounges and bunk beds -- second homes.)
The Nashville house has an open-plan living room, den and dining room, and eclectic furniture: a folding chair next to a handsome old sideboard, for instance. When I was there, it may have been still suffering from the décor problems that divorces almost always seem to cause. There's an alcove near the front of the house with a junior-size set of drums for Sam, some vintage-looking guitars leaning against a wall, a wall unit crammed with videos, books and other stuff. ' 'Firm Buns and Abs,' ' Ms. Krauss said, indicating a videotape box. 'Notice it's still in its wrapper.'
'There are a lot of Stephen King books, too,' I said.
Ms. Krauss said: 'Yes. I was having trouble sleeping again, here in this house. I asked Dan Tyminski -- Union Station's guitarist -- if he wouldn't stay in the house with me. He noticed all those books and asked me if I read them. I said yes, and he said, 'Well, maybe you shouldn't.' I started sleeping better, so I guess he figured it out. Dr. Dan.'
We looked around the house a little more. On the mantel stood an accomplished Beatrix Potter-like painting of a rabbit. 'My mother did that -- it was for the cover of the Urbana-Champaign magazine,' said Ms. Krauss, who grew up in that Illinois town and attended the University of Illinois, where she studied music composition and history. Also on the mantel was a snapshot of a young woman with her two front teeth missing. 'That's Amy,' she said. 'We've known each other ever since I was 9. She's awful. Just terrible!'
Of the television set in the den she said: 'When I was growing up we were allowed to watch a half an hour of TV a day, but I don't let Sam watch any at all. This is used mainly for tapes. When you see a child playing happily with just a couple of spoons, how entranced he can be with them, why does he need all that overstimulation?'
As we looked at a signed poster of Def Leppard, Ms. Krauss made a heavy metal salute with her thumb, index finger and pinky and said: 'Yeah! Rock on, guys! They are my heroes. I love their music, and Lynrd Skynrd and AC/DC.'
Of a photo of a partly unclad young woman, her back to the camera, two black rectangles strategically placed over the image: 'That's Amy again. I told you she was terrible.'
We sat down in the living room, Ms. Krauss perched on the folding chair, and talked, with Sam off in a playroom with the nanny. 'My parents made us do everything, try everything,' she said. 'Sports, music, other activities. I started with the classical violin when I was 6, and I guess it went well. We heard almost every kind of music in our house -- classical, jazz, popular.'
There were bluegrass records around, too, and a few years after her first violin lessons, Ms. Krauss began to win fiddling contests. She signed her first record contract when she was 14. Within four years she was nominated for a Grammy.
'I find the songs I want to record by listening to as much music as I can,' she said. 'When I hear things I really like, I ask the writers to send me a tape of everything they've ever written. It's a little harder now, because Sam is real picky about what he wants to listen to in the car.'
Referring to 'Ghost in This House,' a song about a broken heart by Hugh Prestwood, which Ms. Krauss covered on her last album, she said, 'I had to have it.' For her new album, she wanted 'The Farmer Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn,' an old song she heard sung by Pat Brayer, as she put it, 'in a weird way.'
Stephen King books, the terrible friend, sleeping in closets, the affection for sad, ghostly music (to say nothing of Def Leppard), the dangers of television: it all indicates an attraction to mischief and even darkness, mixed with some fearfulness.
'Anyway, that's my life, really, the music and Sam,' she said. 'It has been a perfect combination, because they fit together so well. Yesterday, we were rehearsing in this room, and if Sam wanted me, I could just go out and take care of him, and the band could keep rehearsing.'

The folding chair explained, perhaps -- and a reminder that you don't need a big hall when you play purely acoustic instruments in a small folk ensemble.
'Do you want to see something really important in this house?' Ms. Krauss said. 'I'll show you.' She went to the sideboard and opened a couple of big drawers. They were filled with tapes -- maybe hundreds -- of every sort of music, many of them pitch or demo tapes she had asked for, others sent to her or her manager unsolicited. It seemed she wanted this hidden evidence of her passion about music to do the rest of her talking for her.
It also occurred to me that her biggest hit so far was an accidental commentary on both her expressiveness as a performer and her reluctance to feed the publicity machine. Its refrain is 'You say it best when you say nothing at all.'
