Historic Columbia is thrilled to announce that LADY STOUT, the genre-defying artist known for her electrifying fusion of soul, rock, and jazz, will headline the 47th annual Jubilee: Festival of Black History & Culture, presented by Absolute Total Care. The festival, which takes place at the historic Mann-Simons Site on Saturday, September 20, 2025, promises a day filled with music, art, history, and cultural celebration. The 2025 festival’s main stage is proudly sponsored by Richland County Councilwoman Gretchen Barron.
LADY STOUT’s journey from singing in church at the age of three to performing at world-renowned stages like the Grammy Awards, Coachella, and NPR’s Tiny Desk is a testament to her incredible talent and undeniable presence. She has shared the stage with legends like Alicia Keys, Childish Gambino, Quincy Jones, and Robert Glasper, but her solo career has propelled her to new heights. Her latest single, “Grateful,” is making waves for its powerful message and infectious groove, with even more new music set to release in summer 2025.
“LADY STOUT is an artist whose music and message align perfectly with the spirit of Jubilee,” said Executive Director Suzanne Brooks. “Her performance will not only entertain but also inspire, embodying the rich cultural history and creativity that the Jubilee festival celebrates.”…
