Up-and-coming songwriter Jon Cheryl is known for bringing an impressive amount of sound to the stage for one man and one guitar. His extensive voice and guitar chops, honed over the past two decades, provide a powerful platform for performing his painstakingly crafted songs. Growing up the son of a South Carolinian preacher, he naturally considers gospel, hymns, and spirituals as deep-rooted influences. Other influences include alternative rock that was impossible to avoid in the 90's and jazz which he found as his tastes matured. He is currently performing selections from his self-recorded album "Winyah."
