FLINT – The Grammy award-winning, African-American female a cappella ensemble, Sweet Honey in the Rock will perform at The Whiting Saturday, Sept. 17, 2005 at 8 p.m.
Sweet Honey in the Rock uses six powerful voices supported by hand percussion instruments to create a spiritual blend of lyrics, movement, and narrative that variously relate history, point the finger at injustice, encourage activism, and sing the praises of love, hope, and peace. Sweet Honey in the Rock has deep musical roots in the sacred music of the black church – spirituals, hymns, gospel – as well as jazz and blues. The septet, whose words are simultaneously interpreted in uniquely expressive American Sign Language, invites their audiences to open their minds and hearts with a style that is truly their own.
