The buttery voice of Sherry Williams is an oasis; she is a storyteller who paints pictures with words, and bridges the gap between past and the present. Her masterful interpretation of the lyrics makes an over worn song meaningful, or brings an unknown song to life.
“Sherry is the incomparable present-day combination of Lady Day, Sarah and Ella...” Though she emerges from the shadows of those great ladies who have gone on before her, her style is unmistakably her own.” ~ The Merc, Temecula CA
Early on in her career, she and her band toured with Debbie Reynolds as the opening act. Since then, she appeared on television appearances, (THE TONIGHT SHOW with Johnny Carson, THE GLEN CAMPBELL SHOW, THE TOM JONES SHOW, THE DELLA REESE SHOW, SOUL TRAIN and others), recording sessions, nightclub & concert tours. She toured with Andy Gibb, the legendary Johnnie Ray, and worked with a multitude of jazz greats, including the late jazz flutist Herbie Mann. Sherry also books jazz talent from all over the world at The Merc, an intimate listening space in Temecula.
Joining Sherry to bring you the standards you know and love with fresh musical colors and textures: LA-based pianist John Rodby (Musical Director for singer/actress Dinah Shore), bassist Rob Thorsen and a special guest TBA.
