Sherry St John grew up on a Quarter Horse Farm in NJ. Her family bred, showed, and trained Quarter Horses. They had the basic farm animals, cats, dogs, and even raised pigs one year. So it probably comes as no surprise, Sherry is a real animal lover. Sherry's dad is one of the top farriers in the World to this day. He is know for being one of the top farriers of the Rich and Famous. He even made and "Patented" the very first sliding shoe for Reining Horses. Sherry's brother is also in the horse business, he trains and shows, Quarter Horses, Morgan's, and Arabians. He too has been very successful in the business.
As Sherry puts it, " I just love to sing about country"..... "I've loved to sing my whole life, and I was influenced by country music from a very young age." She is now writing her own material and really having fun with it.
Sherry always knew from a very young age, she wanted to be a vocal performer. Whether she was performing her childhood home-made commercial jingles, singing over her brother playing the trumpet, or performing with band mates on dirt pile "stages," her dream has always been to take the musical stage by storm. To this day, Sherry still maintains her own brand of spunk, style, and energy that continues to delight her audiences.
Sherry’s passion for performing was re-energized after going to the Broadway show Jersey Boys. She decided it was "now or never" to achieve her lifelong goal of becoming a singer. As a first step in realizing her dream, Sherry began professional vocal training. She was selected to perform live on many occasions, including her town’s Welcome Day celebration. To gain additional experience, Sherry recorded several country cover songs at a local recording studio. The producer liked her sound so much that he asked Sherry if she would sing one of his original songs. She subsequently recorded "There’s Just Somethin’"– a catchy tune that highlights her outgoing personality.
Sherry also entered various singing competitions to gain more experience and to promote herself. She was selected as a finalist in Nashville Music Network’s Star Search 2006, where she competed with hundreds of performers from all over the country. As part of this competition, Sherry performed "There’s Just Somethin’" at the Gibson Showcase in Nashville, TN.
Her persistence and promotion started to pay off. While in Nashville, Sherry caught the attention of Tony Mantor, CEO of Plateau Music. Tony liked Sherry’s voice and stage presence and offered her a recording contract. Though she had two other independent labels interested in her, Sherry chose to work with Plateau Music on a four-song production. During this production, Sherry had the opportunity to collaborate with some very prominent musicians, including David Northrup, lead drummer for Travis Tritt.
herry hasn’t signed with a particular label yet, as she is still considering all of her options. In the meantime, she traveled back to Nashville to meet with Wynn Varble, an accomplished artist and award-winning songwriter. While meeting with Wynn, he offered her the opportunity to sing any of his songs she would like. She will be returning to Nashville to cut 5 of his songs. There’s even talks of promoting her through the PBR (Professional Bull Riders), when her first CD is finished.
Sherry has recently been writing her own material, and she is very excited about a song she wrote, "Why I’m Country," which is still in production and should be ready for listeners soon. She has a few other original songs she’s written that are in pre-production. In the meantime, she recently filmed her first music video for the original song, "Live a Little." The video was directed by Dickson Sorensen (sorensenfilm.com.)
