Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Cherryholmes 2: Black & White Comment: The Family Members that make up Cherryholmes are a talented group of musicians. You owe it to yourself to check out their website and give them a listen. I did and that's what sold me on them. Cherryholmes, for those that don't know, isn't just a group name. It's actually their last name. The Father, Jere, plays the upright bass, Sandy, the Mother, plays mandolin, Daughters Cia,( banjo), and Molly, (fiddle) and finally their Sons, Skip (guitar) and B.J. (fiddle). In addition to their talents with their respective instruments and great harmonies, Cia, Molly, B.J. and Sandy wrote six of the twelve cuts. Not to mention an instrumental piece composed by B.J. So, with The Cherryholmes you get the whole package, writers, singers and pickers. So, if you ask me, buy the cd and if you get the chance, attend one of their concerts. I will be doing just that real soon. Customer Rating: Summary: Cherryholmes is Exceptional! Comment: I recently gained an appreciation for bluegrass (I have been into good classic rock and classical for years). When I saw Cherryholmes listed to play last summer at the Spencer Theater, I first bought the "Black and White" CD here at Amazon after hearing the samples. I looked forward to it, as I did a couple CD's from Allison Kraus a year earlier. After my wife and I played the CD, we were hooked. We bought tickets to their Ruidoso show, and that was one of the best concerts I have been to and well-worth the 2-1/2 hour drive. Cherryholmes' musicianship was tight AND highly inspired, which is an unbeatable combination. Buy the CD (and they have earlier ones, as well), but try to catch them in concert...they have a heavy tour schedule, so they are bound to come somewhere near you. Customer Rating: Summary: This is the best CD I have purchased in a long time Comment: I've always been a fan of bluegrass. However in the past year it has become a passion. I happened to catch Cherryholmes recently on the Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour. I was so impressed with the sound, particularly Cia's banjo and vocals, that I bought CD. The first listen to the entire CD blew me away, and the more I listen the more I like it. Customer Rating: Summary: Cherryholmes does it again! Comment: An excellent follow up to the first release! Vocals are out of this world! Very versed family! You will enjoy this CD! Customer Rating: Summary: great music Comment: if you have not seen or heard these guys,your time is now.bluegrass at it's best!fast delivery and exactly as promised. thanks More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: Though the lightning crackling across the CD cover suggests a heavy-metal band (or perhaps a cross between the Addams Family and a Black Oak Arkansas reunion), the second release by Cherryholmes on Ricky Skaggs's label establishes the family band as one of the most promising acts in contemporary bluegrass. The star here is Cia Cherryholmes, the banjo-playing daughter who composes most of the album's original material and ranks with Alison Krauss as a vocalist on highlights such as the opening "You Don't Know What Love Is" and the prison-ballad title track. Yet the instrumental interplay and harmonies reflect the sextet's blood ties, while the range of material bridges the traditional and progressive (it's hard to hear Cia's "Don't Give Your Heart to a Knoxville Girl," sung by brother B.J., without thinking of the Louvin Brothers' classic "Knoxville Girl"). --Don McLeese
