Use your Creative Genius

Janis Joplin broke ground for women in rock music, rising to fame in the late 1960s and becoming known for her powerful, blues-inspired vocals.

With her forceful, gutsy singing style, Joplin amazed audience members and was unlike any other white female vocalist at the time.

In recognition of her significant accomplishments, Joplin was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995, honored with a Recording Academy Lifetime Achievement Award at the Grammy Awards in 2005, and has been dubbed the "First Lady of Rock n Roll."
