It started out as a joke, a prank:
Delta Fox thought it would be funny, to sign her friends up
for the annual college talent show, to put them onstage and
watch them make fools of themselves.
But the joke was on Delta. As it
turned out, Rae Dawn played the piano. Lacy was learning the
guitar, and her twin sister Lauren could carry a fairly good
tune. They were good--really good--and they refused to go on
without Delta as part of the group, too.
Thus the Delta Belles All-Girl Folk
Band was born. One performance, they thought. Their fifteen
minutes of fame.
Fifteen minutes, however, stretched
into four years, and the group became far more significant
than any of them had ever envisioned. The songs, the sixties,
their sisterhood changed all of them and sent them in
directions they had never intended to go.
And so when the Delta Belles are
asked to reunite to sing one final concert for their 25th
anniversary homecoming, they must find a way to rediscover
their lost connections, to weave from the frayed and tangled
threads of their lives a new tapestry of friendship, trust,
and love.
