June 18 – Jerre Haskew
Jerre Haskew was a founding member of the legendary folk group The Cumberland Trio during the Folk Era of the early 1960’s. The Cumberland Trio recorded in 1964 with Chet Atkins at RCA Nashville’s famed Studio B and in New York City at the renowned Gotham Studios. In 2000 he reunited The Cumberland trio for two successful reunion concerts at the historic Bijou Theatre in Knoxville, TN which were recorded and released on CD, as well as remastering to CD and releasing the Trio’s 1964 RCA Nashville and NY City recordings. From 2007-2015 he worked on a Haskew family music project that culminated in the release of Songs From the Fiery Gizzard- The Music of the Haskew Family. The album features 23 songs written by Jerre and his wife Barbara over a fifty year period and sung by them, their daughter Holly and their granddaughter Sarah. The album was recently named 2015 National Folk CD of the Year by the Rural Roots Music Commission. Jerre continues to perform his own original songs and selective audience favorites throughout East & Middle TN, Northwest GA & at folk festivals around the nation.
