Singing this North Carolina gospel tune with my sister Lalenja at Biscuits and Banjos Festival was a deeply moving moment for me. Lalenja and I have been singing together since I was about 4, and I don’t think I’ve ever done a show in North Carolina that she hasn’t sung on since. Sibling harmony is so special because we’re the closest related to each other of anyone in the world, and it does something to the voice.

A true honor to perform “American Tune” with Paul Simon and the incredibly talented students at Juilliard. As I said in the Rolling Stone article, I remember first looking at the lyrics of “American Tune” and going “Oh, my God — did you write this yesterday?” It has stood the test of time, and remains a stirring mirror to society. Thank you Paul for your artistry, and thank you Juilliard for having us! | Rhiannon Giddens

In this clip, Giddens recalls learning traditional tunes from Black old-time fiddler and fellow North Carolinian Joe Thompson. Giddens performs “Georgia Buck,” a song she picked up from Thompson.

Every time i pick up my banjo (made by Jim Hartel) I feel a lick or tune wanting to escape into the world. This is one of hundreds that come and go. I play this banjo, a replica of a banjo style from 1858, because it feels deeply cultural and spiritual to me. A time when everyone was playing the banjo - regardless of the negative stereotyping being created around it, this african diasporic instrument was capturing the hearts of a nation. The banjo began in spirit, and when I play it, I feel that

I am in the middle of a project that I will be able to talk about later; but it has been all encompassing and very important for me personally rather than my mission. We all grow, heal and learn through the making of art - as a professional artist I sometimes get the perfect opportunity that marries a chance for emotional healing to artistic growth. Part of my journey has been walking into the fullness of myself as a woman, particularly as I undergo menopause and enter Act III of my woman’s time

So I received this rather excellent Christmas gift in the mail from a friend, a vintage metronome, and decided the last day of the year was the perfect time to try it out. This is what we are trying to get rid of, in our "everything must be instantaneous" cultural move. The zen of just trying to get better at something. It takes time. It takes meditation. It takes patience. These are things I value more and more as I age. Happy 2026 - go pick up an instrument (or needles or a hook) and bliss out
