"I write from a cultural point of view, from other people's point of view," Rhiannon Giddens tells Bruce Headlam on the Broken Record podcast, "trying to highlight black and mostly female voices that I feel like need to be highlighted. And a lot of times they come through as real spiritual kind of events." They also discuss her new album with Francesco Turrisi, They're Calling Me Home, which features mostly old-time songs she didn't write but which the two expats found themselves drawn to by during the COVID-19 lockdown in Ireland. You can hear the episode here.
