I
was born in Oklahoma and raised between the mid-west and North
Attleboro, MA. (Isn't that scary ?!) I've been playing piano (and
dancing) since I was 4, learned the beginnings of what I know about
guitar from my brother, on a road trip from Oklahoma to Massachusetts,
when I was 11. (A long time ago, fortunately I've had time to work on it
since then!) I studied theater and music at Adelphi University, on Long
Island, in NY, and spent the next ten years not using any of it.
I got
back into playing when I moved to Cape Cod in 1989. I played with
"The Fabulous Dyketones" the summer of '93, in Provincetown,
MA, attempting to play Bass guitar and sing at the same time (very
difficult...hats off to Sting!) and started "Sheri Lynne and
Stillwater" the very next winter. "Stillwater" (named
after the city in OK) had a
wonderful 7 year run as one of the most
successful, all round (i.e.: Country music, Rock and Roll, Blues..
Originals etc.) bands on Cape Cod. We were a power trio, meaning,
everyone who worked in the band, played an instrument and sang. It gave
us terrific diversity and, as a result, wonderful fans and public
appeal. Believe me...we had a BLAST! I've really appreciated the
talented men that worked in "Stillwater" with me. Some of them
still perform in the "Similar Features" show as well as the
"Where's Willy" show, and that says nothing of the women!
Susan and Diane, who currently perform the "Similar Features"
show with me, as a trio, RULE! And when Harlan adds his leads.....you
might as well be at the real thing. That's how they make me feel.. I
only hope everyone who sees our show feels the same way I do!
I'm proud
to say I live on Cape Cod, with my wonderful partner and our two
terrific dogs! (They're fresh...the dogs that is!) And that's entirely
enough about me! See you at the show! Keep women's "Rock"
alive! - SFL
