- Rhiannon Giddens and Laurelyn Dossett, singing Dossett's "String of Pearls" from THE GATHERING. An Americana holiday cd released November 2011.
The Gathering features Laurelyn Dossett, Rhiannon Giddens, Joe Newberry, Mike Compton and Jason Sypher.
Rhiannon may very well be my favorite artist of my lifetime. That is saying a lot. I was born in the early 50's so for my money, I have been privileged to hear and see the best of the best. No one touches me like Rhiannon.
Same here, David. I was born in Ohio in the early 50's and moved South in 1979. Fast forward to a few months ago, I found out about the Carolina Chocolate Drops, then Rhiannon, Dom Flemmons and in a month, I have purchased every CD she performs on. Today she partners in life and music with Francesco Turrisi and they are amazing as well. She has written an opera called 'Omar', based on a true story. It is being performed around the USA upcoming. She is also doing a music residency in Ojai California early next year.
You are by no means alone
Pure magic!
So lovely!❤️
Rhiannon Giddens is one of the pe- eminent performers of the 21st century.
What a beautiful song!
Beautiful, sweet song. Love the vocal harmony
Beautiful.
How beautiful! So simple. A guitar, crickets and the two beautiful voices of women harmonizing perfectly. Rhiannon Giddens is amazing. A gorgeous voice (as well as Laurelyn Dossett's) and the ability to sing so many genres of music, playing so many instruments. The talent possessed by this one woman is immeasurable.
beautiful playing and singing!!
Nice harmonies and nice voices and such a soothing guitar, and two lovely people.
Very nice!
This is so beautiful
Great...
Beautiful. All it needed was guitar and background of crickets. What music should be, Front porch singing. Cannot get any better than this.

I love the crickets in this recording 💓
I can never understand why people feel the need to click on the 'dislike' button-it is fine if they don't like a song, just move on to something else. How can you decide on hearing a song once that you dislike it that much? What is even more of a mystery to me is how something as beautiful as this has only 50,000 views, even after 4 years, compared to the tens of millions that some moronic pop offerings receive within days of being posted!
+Portcullis I´m sure that troll clicked dislike before he listened to this song.
I agree, and despite the fact that she is one of , if not the best entertainer, the likely answer is that traditional radio, including country stations discriminate against Giddens. What is needed to have a lot of "views" is exposure!!!
holy words
You have to understand. The pop world has no clue what real talented voices sound like. They don't have to have help enhancing their beautiful powerful voices.
I am afraid they dislike her for racism. And that is even worse than poor taste.
This songs really shows that less can be better than more in music. The stripped back, acoustic only, and the beautiful harmonies are all the instruments needed. I could listen to this all day long...Wait...I DO listen to this all days long!
I've noticed that with much of the music that Rhiannon Giddens performs restraint is ever present. The "less is more" attitude prevails. Simplicity and beauty. It doesn't get any better.
the smile at the end says it all: pure enjoyment, respect and love
two beautiful women, beautifully singing and beautiful song.....this is as good as it gets
Great! Great! Great! Love these ladies and love Rhiannon. Especially like how the Carolina Chocolate Drop members show up playing with other people with no apparent conflict of egos or "Look at Me" syndrome. They love music and they love sharing their talent.
And they deeply respect and appreciate each other.
How sweet this is - it brings tears to my eyes and gladdens my heart that there is still such beauty in this world.
Thank you. Exactly right. You nailed it.
David Johnson other than the legendary Harry Belafonte ( who turned 93 today ) I couldn’t agree with you more.
Looking for Glenn Miller, came across this. Just lovely!
I love this song so much. It makes my soul happy. I wish y'all would add 50 more verses. My almost 2 yr old granddaughter loves it too, she falls asleep listening to it over n over. 💚💜💞
So beautiful in so many ways....peaceful with the cricket choir joining in......can't wait to hear this live tonight!!!!
Very nice. I love also the natural background sound, sort of an uninvited, self- directed orchestra.
I cannot believe this upload has so few views. A beautiful song sung so wonderfully by Rhiannon and Laurelyn. So emotionally moving. Thanks for uploading.
Magnificent!!!
In a class of her own.
So pure, so beautiful. Music for the soul.
beautiful and inspiring thank you
How could anyone not like this it's beautiful I sit on the back porch at night and listen to it just warms my heart 💗
lovely moon swoon song. so sweetly sung. loved discovering this. will pass on.
Wow they're only "strings" ...... How can strings ..... Plucking strings...... connect directly to my emotions ?
Rhiannon Giddens one of the best voices on the American music scene.
I'm dreaming
Big fan of Rhiannon. She is a national treasure and her recent McArthur award is a final statement on her talent. R
Lovely duet.
I love this so very much. Just utterly beautiful.
So beautiful... made me cry...
Love this especially Rhiannon Giddens
Who wrote that beautiful song ?
This That hey! I did. My name is Laurelyn. I am singing with Rhi in my backyard.
Wow , lovely.
Wow. Beautiful. ‼️💓🌹
Rhiannon, Laurelyn ladies you have the magic
and the crickets....
wow such a beautiful voice
voices
This girl is so talented, it's insane!
lovely singing
anointed
Amazing.....!
She has a great voice but this song reminds me of the dreary coffee house folk music I heard back in the sixties. As long as she stays away from Kumbaya I can hang in there.
+DucksDeLucks If you haven't already done so, maybe have a listen to Rhiannon singing 'Spanish Mary', 'Julie' or 'O Love Is Teasin'.
I'll check it out. Just ask her not to do any Joan Baez covers (-;
Music is subjective of course, and I have never got on that well with the songs or voice of Joan Baez, but I love Rhiannon Giddens voice-in fact it is so good that it has encouraged me to listen to genres of music and artists (that she has covered) that I wasn't that familiar with. I have seen her sing live three times now, and each time she was awesome.
Portcullis btw I think Joan Baez had a beautiful voice but she soon put it at the service of material that I don't care for.
Two wonderful music makers!!!
Love it so much.Makes my heart sing.
Oh, you don't like the real stars--like Dua Lipa and her "good in bed" tour?
@@jimquantic Rhiannon and Laurelyn are REAL STARS!
Wish this version was included on the Gathering album
made me cry
Ai meu Deus, como sinto vontade de chorar e chorar só de ouvir.. Lindo por de mais!
Wowser!
Wonderful! My wife thinks so too.
that just may be the most beautiful thing I ever heard in my life
I love everything about this video.
So beautiful!!!!!
Wow!!!!!! She's wonderful.....soul in every word!!!! Dam where can I find a girl like her? Wow....keep on doing your magic with your compassionate heart and soul hun!!!!!!
What a wonderful video. Its like theyre just sitiing on your backpatio while youve walked back in the house to refill your drink.
This is so beautiful, the harmony is amazing, really touches my heart, such a gift.
There are 37 people out there in the world who are truly to be pitied. Beauty, it appears, has passed them by.
Among the nicest voice I ever heard . That is Rhianna Giddens
Mama mia what a voice. Reminds me of Bonnie Raitt and Joan Baez rolled into one.
Beautiful! What great harmony . ❤
Ladies, thank you so much for this. So soothing and moving at the same time.
Yes
Beautiful
Thank you ladies !
