With a Cherry on Top

If you have a rock act, you can only squeeze in a couple of brothers, or maybe a brother and sister every now and then. Cherryholmes, the "First Family of Bluegrass," is an act consisting of a dad, a mom and four (yeah, four) children. While most families can barely...

If you have a rock act, you can only squeeze in a couple of brothers, or maybe a brother and sister every now and then. Cherryholmes, the "First Family of Bluegrass," is an act consisting of a dad, a mom and four (yeah, four) children. While most families can barely stand to be in the same room together without the soothing presence of an ever-running television set, and many bands have to drink themselves blind just to stand the sight of each other, this rather large family survives the triple whammy of being related, sharing tight-spaced tour buses and working out their creative differences. They deserve an award. In fact, they've received many. Come see why 8 p.m. Friday at McFarlin Auditorium, 6405 Boaz Lane. Tickets are $14 to $59 and are available at the TITAS Box Office. Call 214-528-5576 or visit titas.org.
Fri., Jan. 19, 8 p.m.
