Rhiannon Giddens is Legendary. Mercy, what gifts. What command. What presence. Thank you, Ms. Giddens. Your historical work is a treasure chest.

Rhiannon Giddens always gets into my mind, heart and soul. She is an American treasure.

She makes an excellent point in that it is not enough to acknowledge slavery was terrible without humanizing the stories and the lives that were sold, beaten, raped & killed. It is easy to have an academic understanding of something without having an emotional understanding. We cannot prevent systemic injustices from reoccurring if do not recognize the individual tragedies!!!

FACTS

You can't listen to Rhiannon and her fellow band members without the music touching your soul. It is spiritual, it is educational, but mostly it really binds you to the experience being retold, and also what has carried into today.

Heard Rihanna a few days ago. She performed with the Orlando Philharmonic. You couldn't hear a pin drop in the theater. What a voice! I will never forget her.

A true walking breathing piece of art and history. She is amazing.

She is one beautiful and talented lady. I like the fact she reaches across all barriers to bring appreciation to Americana music, whether it be African, Soul, Original Country, Bluegrass, Gospel, or Historical Folk music (both the white and black cultures). She is a complete entertainer (vocally and instrumentally). Loved when she performed at the Grand Ole Opry.

Her storytelling by singing is enlightening! I wish history was taught like the way she does it.

Rhiannon Giddens is a goddess. We're lucky to inhabit the planet at the same time she's doing her thing.

Every note that Rhiannon Giddens' magnificent voice wails hits me in my emotions. I feel the music, my soul weeps through the pain she portrays and its warmed by by her effervescence in songs of love and hope.

Probably one of the strongest catalysts out there for storytelling the awesome legacy of American Folk music. Love you.

I love everything about this woman. The first song I ever heard of hears was the Gaelic song, and it was incredible.

Yesterday saw her in video filmed in a parking lot with 3 string musicians somewhere in the US, this morning a video in a concert with a full classical orchestra somewhere in France and now this performance. The woman is absolutely AMAZING!!!! 😍😍

What a treasure never in my 77yrs have i witnessed versatility just pure godly energy. Amen. We are privileged to have her in our mist.

If jeff Beck bends notes, and he does, this beautiful lady bends genres from 200 years ago. She's a national treasure.

I love music, all types. Why am I crying 😢 so over the beautiful sad and expressive delivery. Voice and soul of an angel.

I really don't know how to praise this performance enough it's just unbelievable!!!!

Every time I see this young lady I am more and more impressed. I just can't say that of most people. Oh my goodness! What a voice! I had to edit this response. This is ministry. God bless you and yours Rhiannon.

My mother used to sing Odetta's Water Boy medley. For herself. For her father. For my brother. For me. Thank you, RG for telling these parts of our history.

Rhiannon is totally fearless.....she can step up to a microphone and put her heart and soul into it. She is so gifted. Her career is just getting started. Bless your heart R.G.

This month, May 2019, The New Yorker has an amazing LONG article about Rhiannon Giddens. Not just about her music, all KINDS of things about her life. You will love it, if you like her! The cover of the magazine has two beings walking their dogs. One of the beings is human and one, robot. One of the dogs is real and one is a robot.

just finished reading the article and immediately had to come find youtube videos! she's incredible!

It is so thrilling to watch the next generation of traditional singers take their place among the greats like Odetta. There are a bunch of them and Rhiannon is top of the line. I am so glad that she continues to sing the old songs as well as write new ones. I wish her much success and I know we will all learn about our American past from this music.

She's the total package..talent, good person, beautiful and dedicated to her craft. I had the pleasure to play with the chocolate drops years ago in a play Calle bluegrass to brown earth. I knew back then that she was going to be a big deal SS so. As she was exposed to the large listening public.

She’s such a wonderful singer and songwriter- her passion for the people in the history she tells is so present in her performances. I recommend Julie and her Celtic “mouth music” performance too.

We need to consider ourselves lucky to be living in the same generation as Rhiannon Giddens . She brings History to Life. She's channeling a time that we should all take note & realize we all play a part. I love her, thank you Rhiannon Giddens .

One if great talents of the 21st century! Love Rhiannon's voice!

One of the most versatile performers I've had the pleasure to listen to. This video only scratches the surface. Check out her Celtic pieces.

This beautiful, brilliant woman is becoming this white boys favorite music artist. What a HUGE talent God has gifted her with to tell these stories through such powerful music, and yes, I knew about Sister Rosetta, and I love her music. 👍👍☝️☝️

Wow I love watching this soulful singer. Mesmerising. Fab voice.

outstanding. the second song brought me to tears, first time in i can't remember how long. so glad i've found this.

Her voice gives me chills. Huge fan!

What rock was I living under that I didn't know who she was until this year? Stunning, passionate voice, powerful presence...Wow!

Tears in my eyes watching this.

Just fell upon this by accident, praise the lord for accidents!! Astonishing

Lord have mercy, such beauty and talent. Love it!

The talent of this woman is amazing.

You beautiful girl, what a voice and what a soul

I like how in old time music, artists will take verses from different songs and it works. Like in her first song, she uses “Nine Pound Hammer” and “Jack o Diamonds”

Amazing talent! And her voice-unbelievably wonderful.

She's did her homework, what a talent.!!!!

What an amazing artist. I love how she brings the history of the song forth. Such wonderful musicians.

I was a bit worried for my favorite folkmusicians where close to 80 or even past of that, now after i stumbled over Rhiannon I kind a calmed down. Fantastic voice but also great apperance! :)

Rhiannon is a treasure at everything she does! I loved listening to her and being able to watch this video, just subscribed! I feel blessed after watching this video, that’s what she does for me! 😊

Wow. Music from the heart. Love this.

Adore this woman.....play her version of "wayfaring stranger" very often

"Water boy; where are you hiddin'? If you donta come, qwine tella' yo mammy....!!" Wow, some spicin' she adds to this song. Learned it hin h.s., probably 1956 or so, felt like singing along with her but I know I couldn't be on the 'same page'. She's something else.

First there was Odetta and Sister Rosetta Tharp...now there's Rhianon Giddens. How fortunate we are to be able to appreciate them and try to learn and understand while they teach us through their music. Amen!

I see my thoughts recorded here already... Indeed a goddess bringing light to this world. Who's voice even today compels strangers to ask... Who's that singing?

this is so wonderful. Real music, such emotion and historical context woven into this.

Absolute sincerity, love and passion.💙 Definitely is something to show students as a pure example of peoples stories, of those who suffered inhumanity from the saddest pages of human's history in a form of art and artistic expression🤓 To teach them what trully matters and who do we want to become

She is absolutely amazing. More, more, more please!!!

She is extraordinary.

So beautiful.

AUPA ATLETI !!! Rhiannon Giddens, es una fuerza de la naturaleza. Increible voz y belleza. Devoto de ella por siempre.

Great stage presence!

those pipes got me shook, truly inspiring.

this was great, first time to her the Lady sing and I loved it .

This is GREAT music. If it wasn't for the four sisters of common music we wouldn't have pop music. The four sisters are country, blues, jazz, and bluegrass. Jazz and bluegrass are twins.

I have found you . Now I want let you go . What a great singer and musician

whatta voice, whatta beauty

Just outstanding beautiful and truthful. Thanks for the upload.

i've been off TedTalks for a few weeks, and seeing all these new uploads is actually getting me super excited... Lmao i'm probably the only one that gets excited for TedTalks, hence why i'm single. HAHA #worthit

Ms. Giddon's genius lies in being able to tell a nation's history of truth in a song. No need to argue or cajole... just sing out!

She’s a true phenomenon. Wow I’m always just blown away

I am blessed to be able to be apart of her music and be there to hear her voice

I'm a better person for having seen this, amazing Ted event

A women of much talent. Her words are deep and strong, creating a wonderful musical experience.

Just came across this singer in another KZread video. She's an amazing talent. Wonder if she was named after the Fleetwood Mac song. I also love her interest in history. Talent and intelligence is a delightful combination.

now this is a voice to celebrate ... and I do!!!

What a performance! Great!

A wonderful artistic endeavor, inspired from the annals of history and intending to pass it on for posterity. A delightful video! :)

She’ represents the renaissance of folk music in the twenty- first century.

"Come Love Come" comes with love, and love remains within love.

I just discovered Ms. Giddens from Paul Krugmans' latest column (1/3/2024 NYT) there really are economists with a heart.

This is amazing, I am inspired!

She is magnificent! How have I not noticed her until today? Was watching the preview for "Country Music by Ken Burns" and she was on it. She is just magnificent!

SHE IS THE LIGHT.

What a treasure she is!

La performance vocal sur la première chanson magnifique👍👍👍👍👍
