and Nonesuch Records at BAM
After their BAM debut in the 2014 Winter/Spring Season, the Carolina Chocolate Drops return for one night only. Known for fresh interpretation of old-time, fiddle, and banjo-based music, the Grammy Award-winning string band performs music from its two Nonesuch releases, Genuine Negro Jig (2010) and Leaving Eden (2012). Rhiannon Giddens, vocalist, violinist, and banjo player-whom Variety called a “breakout star…hold[ing] the capacity crowd spellbound”-previews material from her forthcoming Nonesuch album, produced by the legendary T Bone Burnett.
