Personalities | Hazel Dickens | Bluegrass | Country
(Vocals, guitar, b. 1935)
Bluegrass was an all-boys club when Hazel Dickens came along from the coalfields of West Virginia with a ‘high, lonesome’ soprano that grabbed the attention of anyone who tried to ignore her. Her singing was powerful enough, but she also developed into a terrific writer of songs about coalmining tragedies and mistreated women, which were recorded by the likes of Dolly Parton and Lynn Morris.
