DESCRIPTION: A blessed flower has blossomed, deep in the Georgia landscape of the home of the 3rd Infantry Division, near Savannah. Cholita, as she is known to many, has been nurturing her gift from the Heavens since age 10, and now at the tender youth of 17, she is prepared to take the beauty back into the realm of having a blessed gift; the kind of gift where you are able to take yourself away from the physical being, and begin to feel free to be lost in a world of musical sounds, and Cholita has evolved from he beginning phases of Sweet Tea, into the now reaching depths of the beauty that has been bestowed upon her, and her voice. I assure one and all that after witnessing an evening with La Hermosa, music in your hearts and ears will never be the same for centuries to come.
