Episode 3 features a showing of Neil Rosenbaum's documentary film entitled "Sing My Troubles By".
​
This feature-length documentary honors older Georgia women who treasure and continue t perform the gospel, blues, mountain music, and ballad tradition they grew up with.
​
The four main segments of the film feature Blue Ridge Mountain ballad singers, sisters Mary Lomax and Bonnie Loggins; early African American spirituals and gospel performed by Rev. Willie Mae Eberhart and nonagenarian blind piano player and singer, Mother Fleeta Mitchell; a mountain string band and harmony singing group, the Myers Family and their friends; and the acoustic guitar and singing of south Georgia country blues woman, Precious Bryant.
