SFJAZZ Dialogues • SFJAZZ Magazine
Vocalist, activist and founding member of Sweet Honey in the Rock’s Carol Lynn Maillard sits down with SFJAZZ Executive Artistic Director Terence Blanchard. They discuss Sweet Honey in the Rock’s roots in political activism, the self-described “myth” of the band as well as having their mind blown by a heartwarming tribute from Talib Kweli. The two also reflect on the time they performed together at Carnegie Hall. You can catch Sweet Honey in the Rock live at the SFJAZZ Center on November 15. The concert will also be livestreamed on Fridays Live, part of SFJAZZ At Home.
