I came out of retirement for this one! The LeeVees have been my Hanukkah tradition since 2005, with the release of the group's album Hanukkah
Bob Boilen's favorite Hanukkah tradition graces the Tiny Desk, for fun-filled songs about latkes and gelt.
There is an intensity to Rhiannon Giddens I could feel from the moment she arrived at the Tiny Desk, and her songs reflect that spirit. "Ten Thousand Voices," the first song in the set, was inspired by Rhiannon reading about the sub-Saharan slave trade. The follow-up piece was inspired by the American slave trade and a New England newspaper ad in the late 1700s of a young woman "for sale" and her 9-month old baby who was "at the purchaser's option." Rhiannon Giddens'thoughts of this young woman and how her life and her child were not under her control prompted the song "At the Purchaser's Option."
