Soul, gospel, and much more

Sherman Holmes and Cora Armstrong are dear friends and periodic musical collaborators. For this year’s Richmond Folk Festival, they will bring together a stellar group of musicians who recently enthralled the audience at a performance sponsored by JamInc. in the auditorium of Richmond’s Mary Mumford School. Joining Cora and Sherman that night were Richmond’s own Andrew Alli on harmonica, Jared Pool on guitar, and Reverend Almeta Ingram-Miller on vocals. CCV executive director Jon Lohman was so blown away by the performance that he invited the same group to perform at the Richmond Folk Festival. They will perform Sunday along with one of Virginia’s finest bluegrass bass players Jacob Eller for a set we strongly suggest you don’t miss.
