More about this title

About the Artist: Bonnie Raitt

Bonnie Raitt is a blues and rock guitarist whose career spans five decades. Known for her soulful voice, slide guitar mastery, and unflinching interpretations of American roots music, Raitt has won 10 Grammy Awards and become an iconic figure in contemporary blues and pop rock.

Why we love this

This arrangement captures the infectious groove and emotional directness that defines Raitt's artistry, making it accessible to pianists developing their pop and blues language. The easy voicing allows students to focus on phrasing and dynamics rather than technical complexity, and the song's enduring familiarity keeps motivation high.

What to expect

Confident and understated. The arrangement breathes with the kind of ease that comes from genuine musical maturity, no flash, just clear communication of a song that knows what it wants to say.

Who it's for

This arrangement is ideal for intermediate pianists building confidence with contemporary pop and blues repertoire. It works well for students ready to explore how blues vocabulary translates to the keyboard, and for players seeking songs that bridge classical training with modern styles.

How to get the most out of it

  • Shape the melody with attention to Raitt's characteristic phrasing; lean slightly into longer notes rather than rushing through passage work
  • Anchor the groove in the left hand with a steady feel, treating it as rhythmic support rather than strict timekeeping
  • Let the blues coloring breathe by using subtle pedal changes that underscore harmonic shifts without muddying the voicing

How to use it

Program this in a student recital or informal performance setting where contemporary music sits alongside classical repertoire, or feature it in a themed set exploring women singer-songwriters and their influence on modern music. It also works as a bridge piece in informal studio demonstrations where students perform songs they actually know and love.
