Bonnie Lynn Raitt (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues singer-songwriter, born in Burbank, California. During the 1970s, Raitt released a series of acclaimed roots-influenced albums which incorporated elements of blues, rock, folk and country, but she is perhaps best known for her more commercially accessible recordings in the 1990s including Nick of Time, Something to Talk About, Love Sneakin Up on You, and the slow ballad I Cant Make You Love Me. Raitt has received nine Grammy Awards in her career and is a lifelong political activist.
