Woodsongs 581: Cherryholmes and Kenny White
CHERRYHOLMES return to bluegrass as the reigning “First family of Bluegrass.” They have stormed to the top of the music world since winning the 2005 IBMA Award for Entertainer of the Year. As little as 10 years ago, the band itself didn’t exist, and half of its youthful members hadn’t even picked up instruments yet. With four GRAMMY nominations to date, the fourth album, “Cherryholmes IV Common Threads” on Skaggs Family Records, brings this talented family back to the WoodSongs stage.  KENNY WHITE is an explosive piano player, a soulful singer-songwriting and a Grammy nominated producer. He worked with artists like Gladys Knight, Linda Ronstadt, Dwight Yoakam, Ricky Skaggs, Kim Carnes Felix Cavaliere, Dobie Gray and Aaron Neville among many others. His relationships with Marc Cohn and Shawn Colvin led to his producing Colvin’s Grammy-nominated, “I Don’t Know Why” and to his involvement in Cohn’s eponymous platinum debut record. Kenny signed to Judy Collins Wildflower Records and has just released“Comfort in the Static,” his long-awaited newest release.
