Whispering Hope - Blue Sky Boys

The Blue Sky Boys were an American country music duo consisting of the brothers Earl Bolick (born November 16, 1919 - died April 19, 1998) and Bill Bolick (born October 28, 1917 - died March 13, 2008), whose careers spanned over forty years. The brothers were born and raised in East Hickory, North Carolina, as the fourth and fifth sibling in a family of six children. Their parents, who were deeply religious and belonging to the "First Church of God", taught them to sing hymns and gospel music. A neighbour taught Bill how to play guitar and banjo while Earl learned to play mandolin and guitar.
