2019 GRAMMY Award nominee for Best American Roots Song and winner of Song of the Year at the 2019 Folk Alliance International Awards, singer/songwriter Amythyst Kiah and her band take the stage for the 10th Annual Les Paul Festival. “With an unforgettable voice that is both unfettered and exquisitely controlled,” Rolling Stone calls her “one of Americana’s great up-and-coming secrets.”
The Tennessee-bred singer/songwriter expands on the uncompromising artistry she most recently revealed as part of Our Native Daughters—an all-women-of-color supergroup whose Kiah-penned standout “Black Myself.” A lot of these songs come from a moment in my 20s when I was grappling with trauma while also trying to navigate the experience of being a Black and LGBT woman in a white suburban area in a Bible Belt town,”
