Popsy Dixon died of bladder cancer on January 9, 2015. Wendell Holmes died on June 19, 2015 from complications due to pulmonary hypertension.[14] As of 2015, Sherman Holmes, the sole-surviving member of the band, resides in Saluda, Virginia.

Sherman, the bassist from the band, is still performing (with a new group). I might go see him at JVs in Falls Church, VA tonight

Was kinda disappointing. The Holmes Brothers band I liked, surviving member Sherman let his guitarist and drummer do too many honky-tonk meets blues-rock numbers. When Sherman sang gospel, they sounded better. The post-family band life...
