A real force in music here in North Carolina, growing up in Greensboro, and tapping in to a unique heritage of Black string band music (called old-time) in these parts in the area around Mebane and Haw River. The Carolina Chocolate Drops music is a real treasure of that musical heritage. "Cornbread and Butterbeans" is a wonderful example of that music. Here she plays a fretless open-back banjo in the clawhammer style popular in old-time string band music.

[@VintageWanderer]

Yep I have been following her since early chocolate drops here in Greensboro!

[@tom7471]

I love Rhiannon! She is so talented and classy! Thanks for the great reaction!

[@lifelover515]

I'm so glad you are finally spotlighting this remarkable performer and I see you've done your due diligence. Multi-instrumentalist, ethnomusicologtst, trained singer, Rhiannon can range effortlessly from intense introspection to full rockin' out. Investigate more please Beth.

[@williams.2414]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for featuring Rhiannon Giddens. I'm a huge fan. I hope that you return to her one day - every performance is stunning.

[@randalmoore4704]

She begins plucking one string at a time while singing. She could pluck one string the entire song and sound so pure and beautiful. (And thanks for the multimedia education. Beth.) Your album is still on top of my stack. I appreciate your incredible and haunting voice at least ten times a day

[@racing2cat]

She was a standout in the concert "Another Day, Another Time: Celebrating the Music of Inside Llewyn Davis." She performed (and yes, I had to google this) S'iomadh Rid (The Dhith Om / Ciamar A Ni Mi) and it was amazing!! 🙂❤

[@jeffbrehove2614]

That whole concert/album changed my goddam life.

[@carolmartin4413]

She is just phenomenal in so many artistic ways. It's like she took bits and pieces inherited from her varied genetics and created a superior musician with the best of each part. So spiritual.

[@derianparsad5659]

I've always loved Rhiannon's version of this song, I already have this on my playlist to be played at my funeral.

[@236260]

Ms. Giddons is staggeringly rich in soul. The privelege of seeing her live is something I look forward to in March.

[@envirogeekyyc]

I have to mention my Rhiannon Giddens story, it was and always will be a musical highlight for me. The first I became aware of her was when the Carolina Chocolate Drops played the Calgary Folk Festival. At the end of the night volunteers and performers would gather at the host hotel for dancing in one room with chilling and acoustic music in another room. I had planned myself in the quietest corner of the quiet room. While suiting there, a few of the performers pulled up chairs right near me. When the instruments came out I was listening to Rhiannon on the banjo, Tim OBrien on the mandolin, a top tier banjo and guitar player from my neck of the woods Craig Korth, and the accordion player from Eliza Carthy’s band. Over 90 minutes of pure bliss I will never forget.

[@andrewmcfarlane5040]

Rhiannon Giddens is such a talent, and an academic of music.

[@garysmith9823]

Love this woman's voice. Of the dozens of versions this wonderful song I've heard, this is the best.

[@mikeconway9849]

Great reaction, Beth! A beautiful rendition of this song.

[@tokyomb]

So great to see a reaction to Rhiannon. I had the privilege to see her perform at Shrewsbury Folk Festival with the Carolina Chocolate Drops and it they were definitely one of the highlights of the whole four day festival.

[@TheAyeAye1]

Love, love this woman and her catalog. Thank you for giving her some promotion.

[@leeswhimsy]

I had the sublime pleasure of seeing her live in October of this year. She is simply astounding to watch on stage!!!

[@BarbaraABryant]

I am so excited and pleased for a renewed interest in folk and traditional music!

[@dougel4709]

So beautiful!!! I found Rhiannon maybe a month or so ago from other fan's posts on Discord. Instantly fell in love with her voice!! Have since listened to nearly her entire KZbin channel.

[@binglamb2176]

One of my favourite artists. Thank you for featuring her!

[@RandomJane104]

I'm from Greensboro, North Carolina (her hometown). I've been a fan for a long time.

[@Robert_Herring]

Absolutely love Rhiannon. This performance has lived in my head since I first heard it when it first came out. Thank you for giving it a listen.

[@terjetroll920]

She¨s great! Thanks!

[@ddttrrb72]

She was on the TV show Nashville for a bit. When I heard her sing there, I had to follow up. She's so good. Ruby...bluegrass song with a touch of opera. Pretty Little Girl withr the Blue Dress on...bluegrass with a little scatting. At the Purchasers Option, she wrote. Fantastic. Thanks.

[@sfbayareagirl]

Wow. I love Rhiannon Giddens. So nice to see a reaction to her. And from you, a great vocal coach, just a pleasure to watch. Nice commentary, too. Thanks! ❤

[@johnedwards2433]

Wow! I love the spare treatment given to this song. It really highlights Rhiannon Giddens talents.

[@FunkThompson]

Remember that early American Folk Music was a hodge-podge of the music of Africa, Ireland, Spain and many other places that this nation of immigrants brought with them and then combined.

[@nataliephillips9494]

she is amazing i love her

[@MikeYouTube2024]

If space aliens came to earth wanting to know about the human soul, we should just have Rhiannon Giddens perform for them. Beyond the off-the-charts talent and commitment to her craft, she's just such a genuine human being, no matter if she's speaking, playing, or singing. For those who liked this performance, please check out her performances of "Angel City" and Birmingham Sunday". I won't waste words trying to describe them, you need to hear them. BTW, Brandi Carlisle is another artist who makes me feel like there's hope for us humans. Beth recently reacted to "The Joke". Great performance and reaction.

[@EconAdviser]

She is and has been the greatest in U.S., so academic, passionate, artistic, creative, you name it. Such a rare talent and real human being. She's also a unique talent on any number of instruments.

[@BRIANZ969]

Mesmerizing !!!! Thank You-- Brian Birch

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

Nicely done Beth ... Its a very restrained number. She's played with the Dubliners and curated the Cambridge folk festival as well as performed there and throughout the British isles. Shes played with several folk/rock super groups and written her share of protest songs. The Album the Basement tapes ... heavily draws on her tallents along with other Musical superstars.. Including down the River and Spanish Mary a must to see the original animated video. Who's lost basement tapes were they ? A funny guy with a whiny voice and who dared to pick up an electric guitar at a folk gig.. Robert Zimmerman.. Bob Dylan ... So anyone who has the clout to finish his works is going to be beyond the usual curve. Its through a very grainy recording of this lady playing with a North American Indian lady playing slide guitar.... The amazing PuraFe.

[@richardsmith1161]

Love me some Carolina Chocolate drops

[@doobiedave9686]

I met Rhiannon, Súle, Dom, and Justin when they were first starting the Carolina Chocolate Drops here in Durham back in 2005. They are some of the most real, down to Earth people you will ever meet and incredible musicians. 🙏✌️

[@davidallen3490]

So good!

[@stevenmeyer9674]

Her performance of Patsy Cline's "She's Got You" Two different styles, are both fantastic.

[@owlbuquerqueturkey]

Love her!! I saw her live a few times, with the Carolina Chocolate Drops.

[@tn_bayouwulf2949]

Rhiannon is a very underrated vocal/instrumental talent! You would also appreciate the musician Tim Obrien for his folksong catalog.

[@stevenmeyer9674]

I don't think she is underrated. I think she is under known.

[@pameladurant105]

If you ever get a chance to see/hear Rhiannon perform live, do yourself a favor and go! I have been fortunate enough to see her perform with the Carolina Chocolate Drops and as a solo performer at the Spoleto festival. She is honestly amazing no matter what genre of music she is performing.

[@Lustforglory]

Told you she's worth checking out :) I'm glad you got to it, thank you

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

At last ...the ladies a force of nature and her original band the Carolina choclate drops were a masterclass in how black and poor emigray white folk musicians created Early american music.. Shes also a musical polymath and plays Claw banjo violin guitar and half a dozen other folk instruments including the skin drum.

[@portcullis5622]

Pleased that you have focused on the wonderful Rhiannon Giddens. Great song choice too. The best version of this beuatiful old hymn that I have heard, along with Natalie Merchant's haunting version. Natalie Merchant is another American singer-songwriter with a great, soulful voice who is well worth a review. She has written so many great songs, but I would suggest either her song 'Thick as Thieves', 'Verdi Cries' (when she was in 10000 Maniacs) or one of the live ,TV solo piano performances (on KZbin) of 'Eat for Two' from around 1993, when she first went solo.

[@ericclayton6287]

Adam Chance of Homefree does a version of this with the Hound and the Fox on his channel and I think it’s definitely influenced by this arrangement..

[@ironnerd8336]

So beautiful. Now, look at the Carolina Chocolate Drops' Cornbread and Butterbeans! That song is the meeting of Coastal Carolina and Appalachia. Rhythm and plain storytelling. So much music has been lost between the Tidelands and the mountains in the past 50 years. Never mind what the Grand Old Opry erased while hammering out what "County" music was during my grandfather's time.

[@auralfixxation6702]

Actually the band Oceans Of Slumber do a cover of this song too. You should react to their song called "Waters Rising".

[@wintermoonomen]

A long time fian of the Carolina Chocolate Drops. Great reaction!

[@rickmancr]

The piano accordian player is Phil Cunningham, who was in the house band for the BBC's Transatlantic Sessions series. You can find all the episodes on KZbin, and you should watch them if you like this.

[@mosfet404]

The strength of her voice is no better than when she sang the song WATERBOY at the American music awards festival in 2015. She highlights authentic roots of American music .

[@oscararzate7956]

Inprecionante bonita voz me ubiese gustado saber de qué país. son estos músicos bien Beth 👏👏🍀🍀

[@messiahmoose]

Rhiannon Giddens is amazing. Check Spanish Mary, Louisiana Man, and Pretty Saro.

[@tonymcdonald2932]

You should check out The Longest Johns version of this song! It's the best version of the song I've ever heard in my opinion!

[@stevenmeyer9674]

Rhiannon Giddens may be the the greatest "little known" singer going. No exaggeration

[@ГеннадийТерехов-ж9л]

I would like to hear your vocal analysis of Conception - Quite Alright

[@VintageWanderer]

Check out Carolina Chocolate drops Hit em up style! Its amazing. Rhiannon is killing it..

[@positroll7870]

Rhiannon Gibbens did some nice douets with French singer Zaz at the 2015 Stuttgart Jazz Festival. Esp liked them scatting "I love Paris" together. Will try to put the link in a comment below.

[@positroll7870]

[@terryking8984]

You need to react to Fleetwood Mac on The Midnight Special- singing Rhiannon - Stevie is young and her voice is much more dramatic and unique!! You’ve reacted to their later years but the early years are better

[@DanPurdy1]

Our own stunningly good singer, and musician. Her classical training shows.

[@marioct130]

A spiritual...

[@lorenapolska697]

Why don't you react anymore to spanish singers?

[@ramoncoronasicairos9468]

Hello beautiful greetings from Culiacan Sinaloa Mexico 🇲🇽 please react to the video of por mi Mexico remix

[@Ahzpayne]

probably my 2nd favorite version of this song. only Blanche have done it better. at least in front of a recording device.

[@stevenmeyer9674]

Hmmm? That banjo has no frets.
