A Conversation with Alexis J Roston and Bethany Thomas | "Marie and Rosetta"

Before Little Richard, Johnny Cash, and Jimi Hendrix, Sister Rosetta Tharpe’s (Bethany Thomas) groundbreaking blend of gospel music, swing rhythms and fierce electric guitar made her an unconventional music superstar in the 1930s and 40s.
Acclaimed writer George Brant ("Grounded") unearths the unsung roots of the fearless “Godmother of Rock ’n’ Roll” and her wide-eyed protégée Marie Knight (Alexis J Roston), as they begin their revolutionary ascent to become one of the most influential teams in music history.
