The sisters are ecstatic to welcome Nnenna and Pierce Freelon to the show.
Nnenna is a GRAMMY nominated jazz singer, storyteller and grief sojourner. Her latest album is Beneath the Skin. Her new book is Beneath the Skin of Sorrow: Improvisations on Loss.
Nneena’s son Pierce is a GRAMMY nominated artist, picture book author and podcaster.

He has written songs for the PBS Kids animated series’ Alma’s Way and Work it Out Wombats!
The Freelons regal the Browns with tales of the late great architect/husband/father, Phil Freelon, being Maya Angelou's friend, manufacturing space ice cream, living in an Octavian future, having to leave Nancy Drew behind and go off-planet, settling in North Carolina, making puppet art about grief, digging where your tears fall and scatting your way through the universe.
