Cherryholmes

Cherryholmes, America’s “first family of bluegrass,” returns to the Lyric stage by popular demand following their acclaimed performance in August 2008.  This dynamic family band first gained recognition when they won the 2005 International Bluegrass Music Association Award for Entertainer of the Year.  Their self-titled premiere release debuted at No. 3 on Billboard’s Top Bluegrass Albums and received a GRAMMY Award nomination in 2006 for Best Bluegrass Album. 

The unique Cherryholmes sound is distinguished by hard-driving instrumental virtuosity and explosive vocal harmonies.  The band’s live shows feature twin fiddles, Irish step dancing, classic country yodeling and old-time claw hammer, in addition to dynamic bluegrass tunes – featuring Cherryholmes originals and carefully chosen classics.  This show will include new songs from their recently released third album, “Don’t Believe.”  You won’t want to miss the group the Associated Press called “. . . the hottest new act in bluegrass.”
