The Sherman Holmes Project: The Richmond Sessions

The Richmond Sessions carries on the spirit of the Holmes Brothers by re-imagining songs and making them their own. The record maintains a bluesgrass/gospel vibe throughout that surprises and delights. Special Guests Include Joan Osborne, Rob Ickes & Sammy Shelor.

Sherman Holmes solo debut The Richmond Sessions can t help being a milestone: It s the esteemed singer and bassist s first recording since the passing of his brother and musical partners, Wendell Holmes and Popsy Dixon, both in 2015. But his solo debut, dedicated to the memories of Wendell and Popsy, is no somber affair. The blend of bluegrass, gritty rock & roll and joyful gospel will be familiar from Holmes Brothers days. And with some of his strongest vocals on record, the album shows Sherman is still an artist in his prime.
