Black Women Amplified

Hello Friend, I am excited to hear from you.

Welcome to another inspiring episode of Black Women Amplified, where we celebrate the stories and achievements of remarkable Black women making waves in various industries. Today, we delve into the dynamic world of country music with the trailblazing Rissi Palmer, an artist whose talent knows no bounds.

Rissi Palmer is not just a country music artist; she's a powerhouse reshaping the landscape of the genre. With a career spanning over a decade, Rissi has made history and continues to pave the way for artists like her to thrive.

Raised in St. Louis, Missouri, Rissi's musical journey started early in life. Surrounded by a family that cherished both country and R&B music, Rissi's passion for storytelling through music blossomed. By the age of 19, she had already secured her first publishing and label deal, setting the stage for her remarkable career.

In 2007, Rissi released her debut album, which featured chart-topping singles like "Country Girl," "Hold On To Me," and "No Air." Since then, she has independently released several projects, including a Christmas single, a children's album, and an EP titled The Back Porch Sessions. Her latest album, Revival, released in 2019, has been praised as her most personal and uplifting work to date.

Rissi's impact extends beyond her music. She has graced prestigious stages such as The White House, New York's Lincoln Center, and the Grand Ole Opry, sharing her soul-stirring performances with audiences worldwide. Her advocacy for artists of color in country music led her to launch Color Me Country with Rissi Palmer, a groundbreaking radio show on Apple Music Country. Through this platform, she amplifies voices that are often sidelined in mainstream country music.

One of Rissi's notable initiatives is the Color Me Country Artist Grant Fund, supporting emerging country artists of color. Additionally, she serves as a Special Correspondent for CMT's Hot 20 Countdown, showcasing the diverse talents and stories within the country music scene.

Rissi Palmer's journey is a testament to resilience, creativity, and breaking barriers. Her unwavering commitment to inclusivity and representation has transformed the country music landscape, making space for new voices and narratives.
