Grammy and multi-award winning musician Rhiannon Giddens will join KSUT's Tami Graham for a live Zoom conversation on the radio, Wednesday, 4/28 at 3:06 PM.
Giddens and Italian multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi have recently released their new album
They’re Calling Me Home, on Nonesuch Records. Recorded over six days at Hellfire, a small studio outside of Dublin, Ireland – where both of them currently live and have been since the beginning of the COVID-quarantine – the two manage to effortlessly blend the music of their native and adoptive countries: America, Italy, and Ireland.
They’re Calling Me Home speaks of the longing for the comfort of home as well as the metaphorical “call home” of death, which has been a tragic reality for so many during the COVID-19 crisis.
