Sweet-sounding trio

The sweet-sounding trio, The Good Lovelies, will treat you to a concert March 9 at Sangamon Auditorium, UIS, as they make their way home to Canada. The touring three-part harmonies of Caroline Brooks, Kerri Ough and Sue Passmore never sounded so good and current and fresh. A pleasing mixture of Americana, folk, bluegrass with a hint of girl-group-1930s-40s sound with a contemporary slant, this trio has just as good a reputation for its onstage presence, touted as being funny, witty and upbeat. Their third full-length album, Let the Rain Fall, was nominated for the 2012 Juno for Roots/Traditional Album of the Year.
