Fabulous concert!!! Having musicians accompany them really showed the ladies voices in a different and wonderful light. The song selections were great and their voices were just as fabulous as ever in this different setting. I still absolutely love Sweet Honey's a cappella concerts, but this one was great too!

Sweet Honey In The Rock was fabulous as usual. A tribute to Nina Simone, Miriam Makeba and Odetta with a trio of excellent musicians. The seats were close to the stage but all the way to the side. Well worth the price of admission.
