  Just found out some sad news

I always wondered what happened to these guys. There used to be a smokin band in my neck of the woods that was absolutely amazing! Some really great music. Their name was Sourwood Honey.

It turns out their lead man Chris Conner, has lung cancer. I just found this out doing a web search (It's from January, I hope he's still alive and beating the snot out of that cancer). I was trying to see if they had a tune hosted out in cyberspace, so I could link it here to share it with you guys.

If you like the Almond Brothers, you'll LOVE this tune. Actually if you like music at all you should appreciate this song as it's outstanding...

Chris' latest band....

YouTube - The South - Let It Sing

Here's their CD. If ya'll like it, maybe buy a copy, as it will certainly help Chris in his battle and Chris has certainly done his part in raising funds for others through various charity events. Definitely going to get me a copy. Some serious southern fried tunes.....

CD Baby: THE SOUTH: Monsters in the Kudzu

Article I came across talking about Conners' cancer....

Free Times - Columbia's Free Alternative Weekly

I don't know any of them personally. I had a friend that was a friend of one of the band members (I think it was Les Hall) but I did see them put on one helluva show (Sourwood Honey) and these guys are the real deal. Keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
