Cheryl Catherine Smith: All Dark Places(Jazz)
Cheryl received her BA degree in Studio Art and English Literature from the University of British Columbia in 2001. She's had the privilege of working with a variety of famous, not famous and infamous artists both in the studio and on stages around the world. She has worked as a lead singer with several bands based in Vancouver’s very musically known Broadway Tabernacle, where the then manager of Little Mountain Sound Mr. Bob Brooks was an influence. She still recalls the thrill of singing before an appreciative crowd of 10,000 people at Vancouver’s PNE Main Stage. She's received many accolades for sounding like a cross between Blondie and Pat Benatar. For many years she went down the artistic road of excess, as she was seeking the palace of wisdom. Most recently she has been a back-up vocalist for the well-known Canadian super group BTO and other lesser-known Canadian and European acts. She has successfully fronted several Rock and Country bands, and worked extensively as a studio session singer with a variety of Canadian solo artists. She is currently devoted to her own career as a solo artist, with the help of her very talented and accomplished partner, Kevin Swain. Some 2005 highlights include visiting the UK and Paris, where she promoted her CD “All Dark Places”. While in Europe she opened for the Maritime’s own ‘The Heavy Blinkers’ at The Brickyard in Carlisle, members of ‘Rubber Soul’ helped out by playing with her for her show at The Cavern in Liverpool. She jammed with the entertaining musicians of ‘Roadhouse’ band in London, performed at Raffles in Chelsea, New York’s Joey John played her single on his own Paris radio show. Cheryl is a diverse singer songwriter, and entertainer extraordinaire who although not yet a household name, is well on her way to becoming one.
