Sherry St.
John grew up on a horse farm in New Jersey, where her family bred, showed, and
trained Quarter Horses. As a young girl, Sherry would go shoeing with her
father, who is now one of the top farriers in the world. She can still
remember bouncing down the road in her father’s work truck, listening to
country music. Crystal Gayle and Loretta Lynn were two of her
favorites. It’s no wonder Sherry says, "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."
Sherry has been writing songs and gaining experience singing at events and
competitions. While in Nashville
for the Nashville Music Network’s Star Search, she caught the attention of Tony
Mantor, CEO of Plateau Music. Tony liked Sherry’s voice and stage presence and the
two of them started working on a four-song
production. During this production, she had the opportunity to
collaborate with some very prominent musicians, including David Northrup, lead
drummer for Travis Tritt.
Soon after the production was completed, Dickson Sorensen (sorensenfilm.com)
and Sherry filmed a music video for one of these songs, "Live a Little."
Last year, Sherry had the
opportunity to travel back to Nashville to meet with Wynn Varble (wynnvarble.com). Wynn is an
accomplished artist and award-winning songwriter, who has co-written such hit
songs “Have You Forgotten” and “Waitin' on a Woman”. While meeting with
Wynn, he offered her the opportunity to record some of his songs.
Sherry recently returned to Nashville to work with Wynn and record some of his songs. | |   | |
