Overview
Saturday August 3, 2024 at 7:30pm
Pulitzer Prize winner and MacArthur “Genius” Grant recipient Rhiannon Giddens’s lifelong mission is to lift up those whose contributions to American musical history have previously been erased. With her spectacular banjo and fiddle playing, passionate vocals, and perceptive songwriting, she embodies a boundless curiosity that explores untold stories and reclaims American musical traditions. As Pitchfork says, “few artists are so fearless and so ravenous in their exploration,” and Smithsonian Magazine calls her “an electrifying artist who brings alive the memories of forgotten predecessors, white and black.” Giddens and her band will center her Caramoor show on the potent songs from her newest album You’re the One.

There is no RSVP to get on the shuttle, it will be there when you arrive (in the parking lot side of the station). If it’s not there, it’s just making the loop and should be back within 5–10 minutes. The shuttle will start running 2.5 hours before the concert, and 30 minutes after the concert ends.
Rain or Shine / All events at Caramoor take place rain or shine. However, this performance is under our fully covered Venetian Theater tent.
