Troubadour Concert Series: Cheryl Wheeler
January 17 @ 7:30 pm - 10:30 pm
$20
Cheryl Wheeler is a gifted songwriter with a beautiful voice and she’s a natural story teller with a fantastic sense of humor. Her funny songs are legendary. Her stage presence is all-consuming. Her audiences ride a rollercoaster of sincere emotions, telling insights, and hysterically funny commentary.
Cheryl’s songs have been covered by artists as diverse as Dan Seals, Peter Paul and Mary, Kenny Loggins, Garth Brooks, Suzy Boggus, Melanie, Bette Midler, Maura O’Connell, Sylvia, Kathy Mattea, and Holly Near.
If you know Cheryl, you probably can’t wait to see her again. If you don’t know Cheryl, it’s about time you met her.
Opening will be Kenny White, a world touring singer-songwriter and an accomplished pianist and guitarist. He can move an audience from laughter and tears — often within the same song — and his achievements on stage, television, and movies are inspiring. He’s worked with such luminaries as Jonathan Edwards, Livingston Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Gladys Knight, Mavis Staples, Ricky Skaggs, Aaron Neville and Judy Collins. Kenny’s also produced and arranged hundreds of commercials for TV and radio, including Chevrolet, Coca Cola, and “The Unsinkable Taste of Cheerios.” He’s the real deal.
