Rhiannon Giddens
“One of the most important musical minds currently walking the planet.”—American Songwriter Rhiannon Giddens has made a career out of stretching her brand of folk music into just about every field imaginable. A two-time Grammy Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning singer and composer, MacArthur “Genius” grant recipient, and creator of opera, ballet, and film music, she spotlights contributions to American musical history that have been overlooked or erased. Following her UGA Presents debut with Silkroad Ensemble last season, Giddens returns to Athens with her band to take us on a journey through Black American music — from country, to the blues, to swing.
