Cherryholmes March 2, 2008

In 2000, inspired by music they heard at a bluegrass festival, the Cherryholmes family decided to become a band and learn to play the music they loved. A mere five years later the Cherryholmes band won the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Entertainer of the Year award. It sounds like pure Hollywood, but their story is moving and marvelously true. From the rip-roaring, lickety-split of Cia Leigh’s banjo to Molly Kate’s and BJ’s fiery fiddle work; the Cherryholmes family has taken bluegrass music by storm.
