Soweto Gospel Choir; folk singers Sparky and Rhonda Rucker

The Soweto Gospel Choir has won Grammies, appeared on talk shows, shared the stage with famous pop stars, raised money for AIDS orphans-and they make some powerful music. They'll perform in Springfield on Sunday, and I'll talk with one of their members on the Friday edition of "Live and Local." We'll also visit with veteran folk singers Sparky and Rhonda Rucker, who perform in Champaign Friday night.
