For more than fifty years, the multiple Grammy Award-nominated a cappella women's choir Sweet Honey in the Rock®️ has maintained an active role at the global forefront of Black empowerment, entertainment and education. Founded by the late historian, social activist and singer Bernice Johnson Reagon, the ensemble's concerts offer a positive, loving and socially conscious spirit, held aloft by masterful choral singing. Sweet Honey in the Rock's Celebrating the Holydays is a unique fusion of traditional American holiday spirituals, hymns and inspirational songs that intentionally incorporates holy and celebratory music by cultures and religions from around the world, all blended with thematic elements of hip-hop, folk and pop music. This special presentation of good tidings for the season has been honed to perfection over a decade of touring. You'll hear classics including “Jesus, What a Wonderful Child” and “Silent Night,” alongside popular band favorites like “We Are,” “Let There Be Peace” and “Chinese Proverb.” In an effort toward greater audience inclusivity, Sweet Honey prioritizes ASL interpretation at every performance. Celebrating the Holydays will feature vocalists Louise Robinson, Nitanju Bolade Casel, Aisha Kahlil and Carol Maillard; bassist Romeir Mendez; and American Sign Language interpreter Barbara Hunt.
