Forget About It isn't really a bluegrass album - it's the other CDs with Union Station that are bluegrass. Your mis-spelling of AK's name is also somewhat dubious - the correct spelling is Alison Krauss.
Some other female bluegrass singers include Rhonda Vincent and Jeannie Kendall, though I'm not sure I'd call their CDs audiophile-quality necessarily. There's also Sara Watkins who split off from Nickel Creek.
My bad on the spelling of Alison's name and "Forget About it" probably is more pop than bluegrass but she is backed on the album by Ron Block, Barry Bales, Dan Tyminski and Jerry Douglas aka Union Station so it does have some bluegrass elements. It shows up under the "Country" genre in WMP and is listed as "Bluegrass" on Amazon so it evidently is hard to classify. I was just trying to offer the OP some options for albums that I find well produced and have music that I value.
BTW: I will be seeing Rhonda Vincent live this afternoon. There is a bluegrass festival in town. Is there any particular album of hers that strikes your fancy?
