Grammy award-winning comedy and Western group Riders in the Sky will perform at the Historic Holly Theatre in Dahlonega this Saturday. The classic cowboy quartet likens themselves to famous Western acts such as the Sons of the Pioneers, Gene Autry and Roy Rogers with the express goal of reviving and revitalizing the “cowboy way.” The Riders seem to have realized that goal by amassing an impressive number of accomplishments and accolades during their 36-year career.
