A SHERO's Journey: Rhiannon Giddens
Manage episode 384243257 series 3373427
Rhiannon Giddens returns to SHEROES exactly three years since host, producer, and creator Carmel Holt launched the show as a syndicated radio hour for public radio (November 17, 2020) with her as its very first featured interview guest. As SHEROES Radio celebrates its third anniversary, Carmel welcomes the multi-Grammy and Pulitzer Prize winning singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, artist, composer, author, and activist Rhiannon Giddens back to discuss her third solo outing You're The One, a week following its Grammy nominations for Best Americana Album and a second for Best American Roots Performance for a song from that album, making her a 10-time Grammy nominee. In this wide-ranging conversation, Rhiannon reflects on the non-linear path taken from opera student at Oberlin to becoming a Pulitzer Prize-winning opera composer, what all the accolades and awards mean to her, and the importance of being a good ancestor in all she does.
