In honor of Black History Month, Pollstar is spotlighting seminal live performances by Black artists every weekday throughout February. With a deep, rich tradition of transcendent and powerful performers across genres and the ages, we are well aware we can only scratch the surface of so many thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of brilliant Black performance. In fact, any one genre by itself, be it jazz, soul, R&B, hip-hop, blues, rock, classical, house, techno, country, house, reggae and more, could easily fill this one list. Therefore, in this series, we aim to hit on a variety of music from different periods and sounds to help put into perspective the depth and range of so many incredible performances that have deeply enriched our culture and lives.
