Renowned vocalist and composer Lizz Wright joins Kevin Blackistone and Robert Greene II on this episode of Our New South to discuss how the spiritual and sonic landscapes of the region define her music. Wright reflects on the deep connection between storytelling, the church, and the resilience of Black American culture, describing the New South as a place of adaptation and survival.
Wright first gained national attention with her critically acclaimed debut album, Salt, in 2003. In 2022, she launched her own independent label, Blues & Greens Records. Beyond music, she is a culinary artist and co-founder of Carver 47 Food & Wellness Market in Chicago, a space inspired by the legacy of Dr. George Washington Carver that blends art, food, and community wellness.
