And EvenIng of SACRED STEEL featuring CALVIN COOKE and KASHIAH HUNTER

Sacred steel developed in Black churches in the Southeastern United States and has since become a worldwide sensation due to players like Robert Randolph and the Campbell Brothers. Sacred steel players have a unique ability to make their instruments “sing,” and their entire performance is geared towards raising a spirit of joy and community in the audience. Calvin Cooke is an elder statesman of the instrument, having performed for years on nationally-known touring stages with the Slide Brothers and Darick Campbell, as well as performances at conventions, churches, and Folk Alliance. Kashiah Hunter is one of Atlanta's best-known sacred steel players and has performed at the Jalopy Folk Festival, Folk Alliance, and the Steel Guitar Unconvention, as well as churches and conventions throughout the Southeast.

With Vinicius Gomes on guitar, Caylen Bryant on bass, and Torbitt Schwartz (Run the Jewels) on drums
