The opera powerhouse (and East Coast native) Measha Brueggergosman spent time delving into her family's history, and what she found (stories of escaped slaves, Black Loyalist lineage, and more) helped her craft Songs of Freedom. On tour to celebrate the new record, audiences can expect Brueggergosman's big voice to take on a slew of classics close to her roots (and heart) like Amazing Grace and Swing Low Sweet Chariot.
