Sarah McLachlan's tender and lyrical singer/songwriter pop has won her a dedicated following over the years since the Nova Scotia native emerged in 1988 with her Canadian platinum, U.S. gold-certified debut, Touch. McLachlan later co-founded Lilith Fair with the purpose of billing female musicians back-to-back, something of an anomaly for concert promoters at the time. Featuring the likes of Sheryl Crow, Tracy Chapman, Fiona Apple, and many more, it was the top-grossing festival tour of 1997. As the late '90s unfolded, McLachlan had a series of hit singles from her Canadian chart-topping, U.S. number two album Surfacing, and two of her three Grammys came courtesy of "Building a Mystery" and a live version of "I Will Remember You." Her North American Top Ten streak continued with albums like 2003's Afterglow, 2006's Wintersong, and 2014's Shine On. McLachlan was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2017.
