I'm discovering Rhiannon Giddon's music now, and I'm in a great place in life. I'm not married and have no children, but I have my mother, my three younger brothers, one sister in law, a nephew, numerous Aunts, a few Uncles, and lots of Cousins on both sides of my family. I have a job that I enjoy, and I am very sociable with people. This music sounds different from what I usually listen to, but my musical tastes are getting more versatile the older I get. I am 45 born in 1979 and I have always liked different kinds and styles of music!
I discovered Rhiannon Giddon’s music at a very sad time in my life, just after my mother and brother died and two friends committed suicide. I was heartbroken. Rhiannon’s music lifted my heart so much and made me cry with happiness and in sorrow. My tears flowed. My heart began to heal. Eternally grateful. A few years ago I saw her live and it was a beautiful experience. Much love and blessings to you always Rhiannon.
I'm very sorry for your losses and the immense pain you have endured... music has always been a great source of healing for me too... take care of yourself, be safe, and sincere wishes for only good things ♡
I am sorry for your losses. If the world has people like Ms Giddens in it reflecting suffering and reminding us of our humanity, then indeed there is hope of a better future.
What can I say, I didn’t get the memo so just discovered her today June 1, 2024. It’s a good day and I am grateful for this life, this song, the artist and her crafts… and all of you ❤
One of the most gifted, amazing and inspiring musicians and vocalists of our time! Thank you for sharing your gifts and keeping the rich history of your music alive, Rhiannon! 💙💙💙
I had the pleasure of mixing her and Francesco at Big Ears in Knoxville, TN this past weekend. I could not keep my goosebumps down while mixing their set. Absolutely one of the best musical experiences of my life!!!!!
Marcus Finchum Lucky you! Her recordings are wonderful but seeing her live is at a whole other level - she has so much talent, intelligence, energy, and charisma.

My sister is musician and artist I'm a big fan of real musicians doing real things. My chocolate gumdrop every time she sings I get goosebumps, I'm a proud black man with beautiful 6 year old twin boys. I play music your music for them all the time they as well are in love with your musical presence and prowess. Please don't ever stop what you do and how you do. You are amazing.
Oh my God, your words hit me so beautifully....to tears. yep. Thank you for sharing that with us, Dominus! I totally agree with you (and I am an old white woman who grew up knowing better because my parents were all about All One in a time of deep Racism all around us). One Love.
Bro Dominus, you have an affecting writing style signalling a beautiful soul who can speak to his readers' hearts as if it were the grace of God, which is something special and singularly sensational. And despite some (minor) problems with syntax, I'd pay to read your prose regardless, which is an indication of how good your gift is. I'm a proud Black man as well, and hope in the near future to partake of your way with words. Fo' real. Good luck and God bless you and yours. (KFB 2.21.19)
Rhiannon introduced me to "Roots" music a few years ago and I fell in live with the music. Then I started playing Red Dead Redemption 2, and said wait a minute , I know who that is. Wonderful.
Rhiannon is not just a talented and gifted musician, singer and song writer but a teacher of historical roots regarding ancient Appalachian music in America, she brings that history to live through this music, every American, especially African Americans need to learn from this amazing cultured woman, the minute she said she felt connected with the banjo without her having the knowledge she has now about it, it was no coincidence that at the time it was her ancient african deceased ancestors transmitting that spiritual connection to her, she is definitely a chosen pioneer by her african ancestors to convey their ancient soul in a modern inspiration of the american bluegrass banjo, this is why her talent is at another level, the gifted essence of her soul is majestically haunting through the ghostly guidance of her ancestors, you can feel it
My sister died a few months back of cancer. We were still praying, expecting for her healing when she died around 9:50 p.m. We immediately went into "raise the dead" mode, going at it with ferver. Heal the sick, raise the dead command.... After 10 or 15 minutes, my wife got a text from my ma 120 miles away. "I'm on my way." is all it said. 10-ish at night? Called ma, but no answer. She was in bed asleep. Didn't even know my sister had died. It took another half hour for the HOLY SPIRIT to get it through our heads that she was "on her way" to Heaven. She sent that text. Thx JESUS for the Word of Wisdom!!! PTL!! RANDY S.
Discovered Rhiannon Giddens in a Terry Gross "Fresh Air" interview on Juneteenth, 2020. Wow! What talent! Graduate of Oberlin. I am glad she did not waste her time singing opera, which was her area of study.
Thank you Plant Rock for playing Rhiannon Giddens.. sitting on my balcony in London, looking over the Thames, having a sundowner and the magical voice and chords of Rhiannon Giddens hits my soul for the first time. Awsome! I am a hooked fan!
Ms. Giddens, I have to say that our 2nd grade class did not want to miss hearing all of your beautiful music today. Thank you so much for sharing all your talents with all of us.
I first seen Rhiannon on the Ken Burns documentary. Watched it every chance I got hoping to see her again. Rhiannon your so beautiful, a magnificent voice and awesome on the fiddle and the banjo just magnify your beauty. Hotter-n-a- fracpump even though she just down to earth. I'd love to give her a whirl around a dance floor just once.
Thank you so much Rhiannon I really really enjoyed watching and listening to you too. You have such an emotive voice and powerful voice too. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤❤
Rhiannon Giddens es una joya de lo más sublime de la música del siglo XXI. Es goce estético del alma, el pensamiento y el espíritu para imaginar un mundo mejor.
A very nice serving of SOUL SHINE, She calms you, she gets the life force flowing in your hearts soul. I love her and her beautiful work. Rhiannon Giddens, "Your talent is a gift from God, what you have done with it is your gift back to God" Leo Buscaglia. Beautiful!
I’m so glad this popped up on my feed.I went to see Rhiannan ,and her husband on drums and a double bass player,festival of the arts,Wellington New Zealand,pre covid.Outstanding concert and uplifting vibes for days after.Pure talent.❤❤
I discovered Rhiannon after watching the Ken Burns "Country" documentary and I instantly fell in love!!! Ive been listening to her music non-stop and it's so beautiful and amazing!! Ive now added her to my COUNTRY playlist on my channel!! Please come to Atlanta and I'll see a show!!! :)
Just now discovered this beautiful voice. Saw her on public television, and had to look her up. LOVE IT!! Looking forward to discovering more of her music!
Such an awesome voice and a wonderful musician. I am pleased to hear that there is a new album on the way, and I look forward to seeing her play live again.
what treasure have i stumbled upon? timeless, ageless, the alpha and omega, all and nothing. you are so mysterious and beautiful. may God Bless you every day xo
Namaste! Wow!! Can she carry a tune right into your heart!!!! I knew a little about this history. But now I have better details and the sounds. I was surprised many years ago that black people had put together square dancing and music. I took a class or two in college and enjoyed it very much. Once I got to the history I enjoyed even more. And now, Rhiannon brings it all back! What an infinite joy!❣
She seems beautiful and strong, wounded and proud, channeling the great spirit, and sharing. "I think to myself what a beautiful world it is". Even though there are many parts that are not. Please share more of your vision Rhiannon.I in a humble way am obliged.
That is incredible. Rhiannon Giddens is a global musician. I mean, she pulls in all the brilliance of American (especially African-American) forms, but songs like this show how she understands ... blah blah.. sorry.. She's amazing and the world will love her music, once they all know her.
Never had given any thought that Rhiannon had a common everyday look and that it would be soooo different.....WOW it just adds so much extra to her talents
What talent! I'm familiar with Gibsonville/Greensboro/Winston-Salem area where some of my wife's family lived. Just reading about her in the May 20 New Yorker and got a big kick about her K&W remarks! One of our favorites, as well.
I'm in love with Rhiannon since the first time I saw her prettiest nouse in this world... her singing way is hypnotic ... the american folk roots perfect preserver!!!

This woman is an utter musical genius. I love her work and hope she realizes how people appreciate her for sharing.
amen to that. Just now discovered her. wow.
she should do ost of firefly-2 (if it's happening), so on point
Yes!
I couldn't agree more. Simply remarkable
I couldn't agree more. She is the real deal. What a great voice, and her instrumental skills are crazy-good!

That's sad. But music will definitely lift you up. Especially music this good. I know all too well about tragedy too.
I'm very sorry for your losses and the immense pain you have endured... music has always been a great source of healing for me too... take care of yourself, be safe, and sincere wishes for only good things ♡
Peace, my friend...
I feel you even I don't know you. Rhiannon is great healer. Peace.

Just discovered her. What a treasure. Her voice gives one goosebumps, as with Nina Simone.
Only 2day, what a voice
Just finding her via Jack white, oddly yet not.. lol.. warfaring stranger... & A rabbit hole appeared & I cheerfully accepted.
Sh has total control.
What can I say, I didn’t get the memo so just discovered her today June 1, 2024. It’s a good day and I am grateful for this life, this song, the artist and her crafts… and all of you ❤
I love this woman, her abilities are astounding! She sings to my soul.

One of the best voices of this generation. Thanks for your art. A fan from Brazil.

@@felipeenynna não é dificil ser fã, ela canta muito.
Concordo plenamente! Ela deveria ser muito mais famosa do que é.
Sem dúvidas, é uma das grandes. Ela tem que vir pro Brasil!

My God, how can it be that I am just hearing this for the first time. No words.
This is my first time hearing her and this song!!! Absolutely phenomenal!!! Wow! 👏👏🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹👏👏🌺🥰🎶🎶
Powerful piece of music. That drum of Francesco's is the best accompanying percussive instrument I've heard in ages. Top stuff.
She's got a lovely voice ❤

Wow! Rock R&B And Country joined back together by their common roots. Simply glorious.
Wow - what a voice.....that's the real deal, right there.
I was gonna say "WOW this is nice"!
This Lady is simply Phenomenal! You captured my heart from the first time I heard you in the Carolina Chocolate Drops!
good lord, we have been blessed
Mesmerizing. The music is, of course, awesome, but it's her voice that takes this to the next level.
And the frame drum accompaniment. (I'm a percussionist and love what FT did here, on a N. Africsn-style drum with a snare.)
TELL IT Homegirl!!!! You make me proud. Your music shoulda been featured in the PBS series, not just your words.
