 New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) - When a singularly compelling new voice takes its place among bluegrass royalty it's notable. When an entire family does so it's nothing short of remarkable. And the opening four songs on Cherryholmes' newest album "Cherryholmes IV, Common Threads" (June 1, Skaggs Family) make it apparent that wonder is warranted. Leading with Cia Cherryholmes' plaintive, crystalline soprano on opening track "When it's Not With Me Every Day," into the earthy, heartening story sung by Molly on "Live It," and then B.J.'s high lonesome "Idle Minds," aided by the ample guitar chops of B.J. and his brother Skip. And on track four. "Changed In A Moment" the band is in full swing (literally) with intricate harmonies anchored around a lead by Sandy Cherryholmes, who joins husband and bassist Jere Cherryholmes as the producers of the rest of the band (literally). Indeed, it's all in the family - one often referred to as "The First Family of Bluegrass," and the release of "Cherryholmes IV, Common Threads" fulfills the promise intimated by their illustrious path to date - a clear musical and creative breakthrough, marked by newfound maturity, talent, and grace.
