The Black Opry Revue

  • Athens Theatre 124 North Florida Avenue DeLand, FL, 32720 United States (map)

Fiddles and banjos take center stage in an engaging night of country, blues, folk, and Americana music with the Black Opry Revue. The collective honors the significant but often overlooked contributions of Black artists to these genres. Black Opry is a hub for artists and fans of these music styles, providing an avenue to discover, amplify, and support artists through their diverse and dynamic sounds.

Black Opry is a home for Black artists and fans of country, blues, folk, and Americana music. Country music has been made by and loved by Black people since its conception. For just as long, they have been overlooked and disregarded in the genre by fans and executives. Black Opry wants to change that. We invite you to discover, support, and enjoy the Black artists that make magic in this space.

One of the most valuable aspects of country music is its versatility and diversity in sound. Country, blues, folk, and Americana music often overlap or weave together – these artists explore all of those sounds and intersections. The Black Opry Revue showcases the diversity in sound and stories that Black artists offer to these genres.
