    What’s brilliant about Rhiannon Giddens is that you can go on RUclips and you can search and find her singing a lovely French song with guitar in French and then find her singing Celtic mouth music and then find her singing playing an instrument, writing a musical…. We have a genius talent here❤

      @@katevalentine7075 I don't necessarily disagree, I'm just being an uber-nerd. I'd say this is more old-time string band meets R&B meets hip hop since the Carolina Chocolate Drops are a modern interpretation of an African-American string band. Yes, I am a musician and I play bluegrass. I love the Carolina Chocolate Drops and I think they'd be the first to tell you they're not a bluegrass band.

    I saw them do this live at a festival and got to meet/hangout with the band for a little bit while they were eating after the show. They were amazing people. Especially Dom. Super nice to me. He signed a vinyl lp for me, ran up and got the other two members to sign it cause I asked after they had walked off. Then just chatted with me about roots music for a little while. Was definitely awesome. Great band. Loved this lineup.

    It's been quite a while since a musical act caught my attention and made me stop what I was doing, but last night I saw "Another Day, Another Time," and Rhiannon Giddens' performance took my breath away. Such a powerful voice. I immediately had to find out who she was. What an incredible sound! I've been checking out various videos of the Carolina Chocolate Drops ever since. Their rendition of "Hit 'Em Up Style" is awesome. Also check out the 2008 WDVX Blue Plate Special version uploaded in May 2008.
