SoVoSo is a 6-person multi-ethnic acappella ensemble that sings a unique, rhythmic mix of jazz, gospel, world and R&B music. Originally known as Voicestra, the group was founded in 1986 by Bobby McFerrin, performing with him and under his direction through 1993. They are now made up of 3 women (including Rhiannon and possible-Jerry's-kid Sunshine Garcia) and 3 men. On this 1997 album, their first post-McFerrin release, they perform their imaginative arrangements of Sly Stone's Thank You, Curtis Mayfield's People Get Ready, the traditional Down By The Riverside, and the Dirt suite co-composed by McFerrin as a dance score for Brenda Way's Western Women. The album closes with the Betsy Rose/ Rhiannon/ Patty Weinstein composition Say A Prayer, with a solo by Rhiannon!
