With a combination of raw talent, vision, and an incurable personality, CHERISSE is on her way to
taking music by storm. Following in the footsteps and inspiration of such artists such as Ella
Fitzgerald, Roberta Flack, and Sade, Cherisse's mix of heartfelt lyrics and soulful Jazz-tinged
melodies lay over funk-soul driven production by Cherisse and her longtime musical partner Mark
Mclean. The two visionaries wanted to ""Get back to what music was all about"" they say. Cherisse
shuns the mold that may come with the industry. ""Its about the way you feel when you hear
something that tugs at your heart. That to me, is the mark of a ""hit"" {song}"" she says. Cherisse
does indeed invoke these feelings with her smooth, gripping voice. The sincerity within her songs
capture feelings that are universal. ""There are certain things in life that we all feel and are affected
by no matter who we are. I want people to hear themselves in my records"". Each song brings you
closer to where this 20 year-old New York natives heart lies.
