| It has been said that Music "can soothe a savage soul" … "is the passion of the ages" … "the
speech of angels" …
"the flowering of character"and as quoted by Beethoven … "can change the world". By utilizing this broad range of tangible sensations, it is not hard to
imagine what a wonderful tool the musical voice would be in communicating ideas, behavior and compelling imagery. |

| "As Sherry the entertainer, it is my desire to invite my audience to join me on a musical journey. If they laugh, if they cry,
if they shake their head in acknowledgement of life's little potholes that we all fall into and if they walk away
feeling rejuvenated by the music they have experienced, then I can walk away knowing that I was able to create
a moment they won't soon forget." |

Kennedy is also a sought after vocal clinician.
She is a firm believer that music is a healing art form. Her coaching style, knowledge of the business and humour
are inspirational for people from all walks of life. Everyone involved in these classes enjoy an increased level
of confidence, self-esteem and lots of fun. Sherry emphasises that you do not have to have professional aspirations
to learn and enjoy singing.
Moving audiences with her energetic and mesmerizing performances, Sherry is a highly polished artist who's been
described as "sparkling" and "dynamic", her voice "rich and beautiful" is said to
"leave you breathless." Adding to her mystique as a performer is her chameleon-like ability to change
colour and direction with ease whether delivering a tender ballad, raunchy show tune or swingin' a Big Band gem. |
