DISCOVERD BY SMITHSONIAN FOLKLORIST, Alan Lomax, the founder of the group was Miss Bessie Jones who had been encouraged by author Lydia Parrish to share the songs of her heritage which emanated from the southern barrier islands. The Quimbys joined her in 1969 and became the second generation of the Georgia Sea Island Singers.
