UK - Just like last year, Shure landed a leading role recently at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in Manchester. Robert Plant and Alison Krauss drew one of the Festival's largest crowds this year with a stirring set including material from their debut collaboration Raising Sand.

Plant kicked things off minus Krauss with a backing band featuring T-Bone Burnett. Things took a progressively country turn when Krauss stepped onstage, adding her ethereal vocals and signature fiddle sound

Shure hardwired microphones were used by both artists, an SM58 for Plant and a Beta 58 for Krauss.
