The Lewis Family
(L-R) Lewis Phillips - Miggie Lewis - Janis Lewis Phillips - Scot Yarbrough
Polly Williamson Copsey - "Little Roy" Lewis
Last Saturday night the Bristol Goodson Lion’s Club hosted the 27th Annual
Bluegrass Fundraiser concert on the
Pickin' Porch stage
with special performances by our very own
VW Boys and
The Lewis Family from Lincolnton, Georgia. Today's picture features The
Lewis Family thrilling the audience with some fine pickin' and singin'
during the show.
The Lewis Family is known the world over as "America's First Family Of Bluegrass
Gospel Music", and with good reason. "Mom" and "Pop" Lewis formed The Lewis
Family group way back in 1951, and the group hasn't slowed down a bit since then!
These wonderful folks have treated untold thousands of fans from all over the
world to their unique brand of Bluegrass Gospel music - with plenty of comedy
thrown in for good measure.
The current Lewis
Family group includes "Little Roy", his sisters Miggie, Janis, & Polly, Janis'
son Lewis and Scot Yarbrough ("Mom" and "Pop" Lewis have both gone to be with the Lord). Their family harmony is as good as it gets, and
the instrumental work is simply amazing. I don't think a stringed instrument has
ever been made that "Little Roy" can't play and play exceptionally well!
 Just
watching "Little Roy" sing, pick and "cut up" is worth several times the price
of admission, and that's in addition to all the wonderful music you'll hear!
It's quite obvious that "Little Roy" loves to entertain and his antics will have
you laughing all the way through the show. He truly is a natural born performer
if ever there was one. That's him in the photo at right pickin' a tune for the
crowd - before the show had even begun!
Yes, The Lewis Family loves for their audiences to have a great time, and they
always do. But they also know what their music is all about - our Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ.
Every member of The Lewis Family possesses enormous talent, and they use every
bit of it to help spread the gospel through music and entertainment. You really
owe it to yourself to get out and see these wonderful people in concert whenever
the opportunity arises.
