Bio

Cherisha Heart has had a guitar in her hands since the age of three and has been honing her skills ever since. Raised in a musical family, Heart fell in love with music and singing, and at a young age was out busking with her brothers downtown, performing on radio stations, television, and at every local venue their dad could book them in.
A dynamic solo artist as well, Cherisha Heart carves out her own musical path with her songwriting. Her lyrics explore personal themes of heartbreak, introspection, love, loss, and transformation, but also share the joy, connection and positivity she feels is still attainable in this world. A master of melody and harmony, she creates a soulful sound both gentle yet powerful, and balancing the tension of these contrasts is an essential facet of her work. She puts her feelings to melodies, and wants to inspire others the way she's been inspired by her favorite musicians and mentors.
