About this concert
Live from the sold-out first ever Biscuits and Banjos Festival, Rhiannon Giddens’ Carolina Breakdown celebrates the deep roots and enduring legacy of black string band music for an unforgettable evening! Curated by Giddens, the multi-act line up highlights the intergenerational passing down of tradition, including the much-anticipated reunion of trailblazing group the Carolina Chocolate Drops for their first performance together in more than a decade.
Featuring: Rhiannon Giddens & The Old-Time Revue, Carolina Chocolate Drops Reunion (with Rhiannon Giddens, Dom Flemons, Justin Robinson, Leyla McCalla, Hubby Jenkins, Súle Greg Wilson, & Rowan Corbett), Niwel Tsumbu, New Dangerfield with Demeanor & more!
About Rhiannon Giddens: Rhiannon Giddens is a two-time GRAMMY Award-winning singer and multi-instrumentalist, MacArthur “Genius” grant recipient, Pulitzer Prize winner, and composer, whose work centers around the mission of lifting up people whose contributions to American musical history have previously been overlooked or erased.

The show was fabulous. Very deep and moving. I will buy the CD for my car and read the offerings on the Silk Road Ensemble website. Sorry to learn about Ms. Giddens struggles with her voice on this fabulous tour.

Rhiannon Giddens Biography
I started singing at an ungodly age, standing in my crib and warbling at passing family members. I didn't really think of it as a career until I went to the School of Science and Math and realized that I never wanted to do another algorithm. So I went to Oberlin Conservatory and did the whole opera/recital thing, burned out and discovered the banjo! The rest is history.
