Sweet Honey in the Rock doesn’t necessarily fit into a specific musical genre. Longtime group member Ysaye Barnwell thinks that’s just fine.

“We really don’t want to be lumped into any other grouping other than that of a female a capella quintet, and sometimes, even that changes,” she said, laughing.
