“One of Americana’s great up-and-coming secrets.”— Rolling Stone

The G.A.R. Hall

November 24th- “Amythyst Kiah’s booming, captivating voice, and her haunting, Southern gothic approach to Americana, bluegrass, and old-time set her apart from almost anyone else on the scene at this moment. Her reimagination of Dolly Parton’s magnum opus, “Jolene,” is a perfect example of how she carefully turns tradition on its ear. Based in East Tennessee herself, she draws on the rich musical heritage of the region, adding her own spin, creating space to allow herself to soar. And there’s plenty more soaring in her future, as she has opened shows for artists such as Rhiannon Giddens and Indigo Girls across the country and in Europe.” – Bluegrass Situation“Black Myself” GRAMMY nominated for Best Americana Roots SongFeatured in The New York Times – <a href="https://found.ee/AKiah_NYT_AL" title="https://found.ee/AKiah_NYT_AL" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">“Amythyst Kiah Found Her Powerful Voice. Now She Has a Sound to Match It.”</a>“She really is important in reminding people that there is a great tradition of African-American, old-time musicians. I love that she sings in this really rich low vocal range, just straight from the chest, resonant.” — NPR“Her razor-sharp guitar picking alone guarantees her a place among masters, but it’s her deep-hued voice that can change on a dime from brushed steel to melted toffee that commands attention.” — The New York TimesGeneral Admission- 32.00Music starts at 8pm Doors to Main Hall open at 7:30pm Doors to Lobby open at 7pm
