T-Bone Burnett, born Joseph Henry Burnett (January 14, 1948) in St. Louis, Missouri and raised in Fort Worth, Texas, is a songwriter, performer, and producer inspired by multiple traditions of America's musical heritage. He emerged from a self-imposed 14-year hiatus as a recording artist in 2006 to release two collections of music: The True False Identity, his first album of new original songs since 1992, and Twenty Twenty - The Essential T-Bone Burnett, a 40 song retrospective spanning Burnett’s entire career of music-making.

T-Bone’s time away from recording and performing led him to other undertakings. He produced various artists such as Tony Bennett and k.d. lang on the A Wonderful World album and The Wallflowers on Bringing Down the Horse. Burnett won a Grammy award for the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack. He worked as a songwriter, and was nominated for an Oscar for his contribution to the film Cold Mountain. He founded the record label DMZ, an imprint of Columbia, and was involved with Mark Heard and Tonio K in the short-lived What? Records. He also oversaw the music for the films Walk the Line and The Big Lebowski.

T-Bone's songs have been covered by such artists as k.d. lang ("Till the Heart Caves In"), Los Lobos, Sixpence None the Richer ("Carry You"), Tonio K, Emmylou Harris, Mark Heard ("Power of Love"), Arlo Guthrie, Warren Zevon, Peter Case, B. J. Thomas and others.
