About This Song
About "Hard Times/Camptown Hornpipe (with Francesco Turrisi)" by Rhiannon Giddens
Two tunes stitched into a single, restless journey. Hard Times' minor lament gives way to Camptown Hornpipe's jaunty skip, banjo and fiddle trading fire. The contrast is jarring, deliberate—a smile that doesn't quite hide the ache behind it.
