In 1966, Robert Plant left home, left college, left work, and turned professional, and in the following decades has charted a musical path marked both by remarkable success and astonishing creative diversity.  From the pioneering work of Led Zeppelin and a series of acclaimed solo albums and collaborations, Plant’s wide-ranging appetite has been insatiable. Drawing on elements from non-Western music, North Africa, India and beyond, armed with a lifelong fascination with American vernacular music, from Tennessee, the Carolina's, Mississippi through roots, rockabilly and psychedelic rock.

Plant has been recognised and awarded with a Silver Clef, a couple of Ivor Novello's and more recently was the recipient of a Grammy® lifetime achievement award in 2005 and collected a further 6 Grammy's with Alison Krauss on "Raising Sand" in 2008/9, scooping the prestigious 'Album of the Year' award.
