Hello friends! New York based, Black Americana artist, Queen Esther is my guest for episode 1042! Her latest album, the gorgeous, "Gild The Black Lily" is available now wherever you stream or download your jams. Go to queen-esther.com for links to the album and more. We have a great conversation about her journey as an artist, growing up in South Carolina, going to University of Texas, getting started at Esther's Follies and Rotel & The Hot Tomatoes, discovering a connection with Americana music, giving TedTalks about country music and bluegrass, The Black Rock Coalition and much more. I had a great time getting to know Queen Esther. I'm sure you will too. Let's get down!
