On the evening of February 19th, 2012, bluegrass stars came out for a special benefit concert in Virginia and the music community that supported the event captures the spirit of the man being fêted.
Backyard Green Films presents the newest documentary film of bluegrass.
Bluegrass Legend Herschel Sizemore’s contribution to the genre is celebrated in: HERSCHEL SIZEMORE: MANDOLIN IN B – A TRIBUTE TO A BLUEGRAS LEGEND.
The film takes place on the evening of February 19th, 2012 during a benefit concert for Herschel and his wife Joyce, who were both diagnosed with cancer in the Fall of 2011.
Director Rick Bowman with his producing partner Bill Perrine shot numerous hours of footage and traveled many miles to make the film.
Rick Bowman says "it was for the love of the music and to honor this great musician" that brought him into this story. He hopes that other people will see the film and learn more about this unique individual and the influence that he had on so many of today's mandolin players.
The film is available at http://backyardgreenfilms.com/backyard-green-films-store/ and at Amazon.com
