Biscuits & Banjos presents: Rhiannon Giddens' Beloved Community

GRAMMY & Pulitzer Prize-winning artist Rhiannon Giddens launches Biscuits & Banjos presents: Rhiannon Giddens' Beloved Community. The event is dedicated to the celebration and exploration of Black music, art and culture in Giddens’ home state of North Carolina. Lineup of those that will be performing at DPAC are Rhiannon Giddens, Mavis Staples, Blind Boys of Alabama, Rissi Palmer, and Toshi Reagon.

Rhiannon selected Durham as Biscuits & Banjos’ home due to her deep personal connection to the city and its thriving contemporary culture, rooted in a rich Black heritage. “Durham is the perfect place to launch Biscuits & Banjos,” Giddens explains. “It has a vibrant community, an incredible artistic scene, and a history that aligns with the festival’s mission to uplift and honor Black culture.”
