55 UnderGround: Rissi Palmer

"Rissi Palmer performs at Engelman Recital Hall, Baruch Performing Arts Center, on March 12, 2008 as part of 55 Underground Concert Series.

Rissi Palmer is a musician on the rise with a self-titled debut album produced by some of the most influential producers in the music industry. After hearing her singles play the airwaves, the young 26-year old starlet became the first black woman in 20 years to have a single land on Billboard's Hot Country Music Songs – the self-written Country Girl. The break-out single also earned a spot in Club Connection’s Top Ten Country Club and Dance Hits of 2007."
