"This was the first song we recorded together in the studio, and it was the one that set the tone for the rest of the week," Rhiannon Giddens says of "You Louisiana Man," a newly released song from her upcoming album, You're the One. "Like kids on the first day of school, we were feeling out everyone in the room musically, and in that moment it all clicked.” You can watch the video, filmed in the studio while the album was being recorded, here. Giddens has announced a European tour for February 2024 following her previously announced US tour.

Rhiannon Giddens has released “You Louisiana Man,” a new single from her upcoming album, You’re the One, due August 18 on Nonesuch Records. The song blends Giddens’ celebrated voice and banjo work with horns, organ, fiddle, and accordion to create a Zydeco-funk jam. You’re the One, her first album of all original songs, was produced by Jack Splash (Kendrick Lamar, Solange, Alicia Keys, Valerie June). You can watch the video for “You Louisiana Man,” filmed while the album was being recorded at Criteria Recording Studios in Miami, here:
“This was the first song we recorded together in the studio,” Giddens says, “and it was the one that set the tone for the rest of the week. Like kids on the first day of school, we were feeling out everyone in the room musically, and in that moment it all clicked. My folks, Jack’s folks- we all listened to each other and found this beautiful place at the center of all our different sounds.”
Giddens, who previously announced the biggest US headlining shows of her career, has announced several European shows for February of 2024. You can see all of the currently scheduled shows below; for all the latest, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.
You’re the One features twelve songs, written over the course of Giddens’ career, that burst with life-affirming energy, drawing from the folk music that she knows so deeply, as well as its pop descendants. It was recorded with a band composed of Giddens’s closest musical collaborators from the past decade alongside musicians from producer Splash’s own Rolodex, topped off with a horn section, making an impressive ten- to twelve-person ensemble. The collaborators include Italian multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi plus multi-instrumentalist Dirk Powell, bassist Jason Sypher, and Congolese guitarist Niwel Tsumbu. The album features electric and upright bass, conga, Cajun and piano accordions, guitars, a Western string section, and Miami horns, among other instruments, capturing the inclusive spirit that channels through all of her work.

The Library of Congress has acquired the collection of manuscripts, instruments, costumes, video and audio recordings, and more from Kronos Quartet and its non-profit organization, Kronos Performing Arts Association. “It’s gratifying to know that Kronos’ legacy will be preserved in perpetuity alongside the manuscripts and other treasures of so many other influential musicians from the US and around the world," said KPAA Executive Director Janet Cowperthwaite. "We are perhaps even more excited to reflect upon all the musicians and scholars who will have access to these materials in years to come, informing their own work and carrying Kronos’ inspiration and influence into the future.” The Library also appointed Kronos founder, artistic director, and violinist David Harrington as the Kluge Chair in Modern Culture and inducted Kronos’ 1992 album Pieces of Africa into the National Recording Registry.
Vagabon (aka Laetitia Tamko) will support the band Crumb on tour this October. The shows begin in California—Santa Cruz, Oakland, and Sacramento—then head to Salt Lake City and Denver and on to Texas—Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, and El Paso—and Albuquerque and back to California to close out the tour in Santa Ana, San Diego, and Los Angeles.
