Roses in the Snow is the seventh studio album by country music artist Emmylou Harris, released in 1980. While Harris' previous release, 1979's Blue Kentucky Girl, featured traditional, straight-ahead country, Roses in the Snow found Harris performing bluegrass-inspired music, with material by Flatt and Scruggs, Paul Simon, the Carter Family, and Johnny Cash. Cash, Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, the Whites, Ricky Skaggs, Willie Nelson and Tony Rice made guest appearances. "Wayfaring Stranger" was released as the first single in 1980 and went to No. 7 on the Billboard Country charts. The second single, a remake of a Simon & Garfunkel song, "The Boxer", reached No. 13. Backing musicians included Albert Lee and Jerry Douglas. At the 23rd Annual Grammy Awards, the album was nominated for Best Female Country Vocal Performance but the award went to Anne Murray for "Could I Have This Dance".
