Iris Dement, nata in Arkansas ma trasferitasi in California, dotato di un registro limpido e squillante, esordi` con Infamous Angel (Philo, 1992 - WB, 1993), sul quale brillano Let The Mystery Be, Our Town, Sweet Forgiveness e Hotter Than Mojave In My Heart, storie rurali cantate con tono lirico e naif, in uno stile che ricorda i folksinger e le cantanti gospel degli anni '40.

My Life (Warner, 1994) aggiunse al repertorio un paio di piccoli capolavori narrativi (No Time To Cry e soprattutto Easy's Gettin' Harder Every Day), rimanendo fedele alla fondamentale semplicita` del formato.

The singing is again the main attraction on The Way I Should (Warner, 1996), her solemn fusion of gospel and country echoeing of antique hymns, but the arrangements are no less impressive, ranging from her piano to a tasty ensemble of fiddle, organ, mandolin, guitar and viola (Wasteland of the Free).
