Rissi Palmer's gift lies in reaching across all musical boundaries. While she made her mark in Country Music, she is equally at home in R&B music, bringing the entire spectrum of popular music to bear on music she calls “Southern Soul.”

The daughter of Georgia natives, and raised in a musical family, Rissi was brought up loving both country and R&B. At age 16 she was part of a singing and dancing troupe sponsored by a local television station, and by the time she was 19 years old, she had already been offered her first publishing and label deal.  

In 2007, she released her debut album Rissi Palmer, charting singles, “Country Girl,” “Hold On To Me,” and “No Air.” Since then, Rissi has independently released a Christmas single, her first children’s album, Best Day Ever and an EP titled The Back Porch Sessions. Her most recent album, Revival, was released in 2019 and has been critically hailed as her most personal and uplifting work to date.

She has performed at The White House, Lincoln Center and the Grand Ole Opry, has shared the stage with the likes of Taylor Swift and the Eagles, and has been featured in such
prestigious media outlets as Associated Press, Ebony, Essence, New York Times, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal and Washington Post.

As a passionate voice for country artists of color and those who have been marginalized in mainstream country music, Rissi launched her own riveting, funny and powerful radio show Color Me Country with Rissi Palmer on Apple Music Country. In conjunction with her radio show, Rissi also created the Color Me Country Artist Grant Fund designed to support new country artists of color who are just beginning to build their music careers.
