Burlington, MA - Raising Sand, the widely praised and bestselling album by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, produced by T Bone Burnett - has been certified gold by the RIAA. A surprise hit of the season, Raising Sand has shown little sign of slowing down since a remarkable #2 debut on the Billboard 200 four weeks ago, and remains within the top 25 on the chart. Raising Sand is the highest charting and fastest selling album in the history of Rounder Records.

Plant, Krauss, and T Bone Burnett recently completed work on a music video for first single “Gone, Gone, Gone (Done Moved On).” The surreal clip conceived and directed by Rocky Schenck will have a world premier on CMT November 29, and is confirmed for a premiere on VH1 December 3rd.

Shot in Nashville, the video adds a raucous element to the Everly Brothers song, with scenes bouncing between shimmering mylar glitz and a performance stage reminiscent of a vintage Technicolor movie. The video will enter regular rotation on both networks.
