Join us for an evening of critical listening and conversation with Grammy Award-winning Roots Americana musician and MacArthur Fellow Rhiannon Giddens, in conversation with Yale University Professors Daphne A. Brooks and Brian Kane.
Rhiannon Giddens is the co-founder of the GRAMMY award-winning string band Carolina Chocolate Drops, in which she also plays banjo and fiddle. She began gaining recognition as a solo artist when she stole the show at the T Bone Burnett–produced Another Day, Another Time concert at New York City’s Town Hall in 2013. The elegant bearing, prodigious voice, and fierce spirit that brought the audience to its feet that night is also abundantly evident on Giddens’ critically acclaimed solo debut, the Grammy nominated album, Tomorrow Is My Turn, which masterfully blends American musical genres like gospel, jazz, blues, and country, showcasing her extraordinary emotional range and dazzling vocal prowess.
Free and open to the public
Tuesday, November 13 at 7pm Sudler Recital Hall Second Floor in W.L. Harkness 100 Wall Street
