The Limeliters were formed in July, 1959 by Folk musicians and songwriters Louis Gottlieb, Alex Hassilev, and Glenn Yarbrough. They played a huge role in the Folk Revolution of the 1960’s. Even after the Revolution began to wane, they remained popular with the people who had embraced the movement. Their Legend has continued over the years, and as members aged, they were replaced by new artists who strive to continue the Essence of their Music. The newest incarnation consists of Andy Corwin on bass, Steve Brooks on guitar/harmonica, and C. Daniel Boling on guitar/banjo. They are continuing the Story of the Limeliters, mixing old songs with their own musical creations.
Juanetta Cooper will open this concert with some music of her own.
”The Limeliters
Dazzled the audience with their legendary folk singing style . . . A spectacular musical treat not soon to be forgotten.” ~The News and Courier, Charleston, SC
