Just as history and storytelling are an essential part of The Work of Their Hands, artist Rissi Palmer uses her voice to shine a light on the history of Country music while being an incredible storyteller for our time. Cameron Art Museum is proud to welcome one of NC’s Southern Songbirds, Rissi Palmer in concert with Charles Newkirk. While she made her mark in Country Music, Palmer’s gift lies in reaching across all musical boundaries. Rissi is equally at home in R&B music, bringing the entire spectrum of popular music to bear on music she calls “Southern Soul.”
As a passionate voice for country artists of color and those who have been marginalized in mainstream country music, Rissi launched her own radio show Color Me Country with Rissi Palmer on Apple Music Country. She was featured in the 2023 PBS special In The Making for American Masters. A few highlights throughout her musical career include performances at The White House, New York’s Lincoln Center and multiple appearances on the Grand Ole Opry. She has toured extensively across the country, sharing stages with Taylor Swift, The Eagles, Chris Young, Charley Crockett and many more.
Rissi has also made numerous national appearances on Oprah & Friends, CMT Insider, CNN, CBS This Morning, GMA, Entertainment Tonight, and FOX Soul’s The Book of Sea and has been featured in Associated Press, Ebony, Essence, Huffington Post, New York Times, Newsweek, NPR’s All Things Considered, PEOPLE, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal and Washington Post, to name a few.
