Rhiannon Giddens collaborates with the Pennsylvania Innocence Project on a fundraising initiative and a powerful music video for her song “Another Wasted Life,” from her 2023 album, You're the One. The video, released on the tenth annual Wrongful Conviction Day, features twenty-two wrongfully convicted people, clients of the Pennsylvania Innocence Project. It aims to raise awareness for the stories and voices of those who have experienced the injustices of the criminal legal system. Giddens filmed the video, directed by Daniel Madoff, in Philadelphia with the twenty-two formerly incarcerated people, who collectively spent more than 500 years in prison for crimes they did not commit. It features their names and the number of years that each spent wrongly incarcerated. The video was directed by Daniel Madoff. Inspired by the tragic story of Kalief Browder, a young man wrongfully incarcerated at New York City’s Rikers Island for three years, where he was subjected to nearly two years of solitary confinement, Giddens wrote “Another Wasted Life” as a reminder of the human toll exacted by wrongful convictions and the importance of prison reform.

Rhiannon Giddens' “Yet to Be,” from her 2023 album, You're the One, features Jason Isbell and tells the story of a Black woman and an Irish man falling in love in America. Giddens chose to collaborate with Isbell for his steadfast advocacy and support for Black women in the industry, admiring both his singing and his character. Video by Robert Edridge-Waks with original visuals from Library of Congress, National Archives, State Library and Archives of Florida, National Library of Ireland, and Prelinger Archives.

The video for Rhiannon Giddens' “You Louisiana Man,” from her 2023 album, You're the One, was filmed while the album was being recorded at Criteria Recording Studios in Miami. The song blends Giddens’ celebrated voice and banjo work with horns, organ, fiddle, and accordion to create a Zydeco-funk jam. “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.” The video is filmed and edited by Torrance Hill for Noir Prism.

Rhiannon Giddens shares a lyric video for the title track to her 2023 album, You're the One. The song was inspired by a moment Giddens had with her son not long after he was born (he's now ten years old, and she has a fourteen-year-old daughter as well). “Your life has changed forever, and you don't know it until you're in the middle of it and it hits you,” Giddens says. “I held his little cheek up to my face, and was just reminded, 'Oh my God, my children—they have every bit of my heart.'”

The video features illustrated vignettes of a story about death painted by Maeve Clancy, an Irish crankie roll artist. Giddens explains, “Crankies are a pre-electricity technology that pair a visual narrative, usually painted on a long piece of paper or cloth, 'cranked' by hand to the timing of the song.”

Rhiannon Giddens performs "Calling Me Home" with Francesco Turrisi, from their 2021 album They're Calling Me Home. Video by Robert Edridge-Waks. The song was written Alice Gerrard, the folk music pioneer of whom Giddens says: "Some people just know how to tap into a tradition and an emotion so deep that it sounds like a song that has always been around—Alice Gerrard is one of those rarities; 'Calling Me Home' struck me forcefully and deeply the first time I heard it, and every time since. This song just wanted to be sung and so I listened."
