"Rare artist...strong poetry, complex melodies, clever wit" -SingOut! A singer-songwriter and comedienne extraordinaire, Cheryl will tell a story that has you rolling in the aisles, and follow it up with a tune that leaves you wiping tears from your eyes. Cheryl is like Groucho-in-a-housecoat, a fiercely everyday woman with a barbed-wire tongue. She touches a chord with any who feel the tug between our busy, clamorous times and the timeless longing for simplicity and silence.
