biography
Mention the New Jersey music scene and thoughts that immediately come to mind would most likely be Bon Jovi, Springsteen, Asbury Park and the Stone Pony. Not exactly the kind of place that you’d think a Country singer would hail from, let alone someone that was inspired by legends like Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gayle. Newcomer Sherry Lynn is out to change all that. And while her hometown of Clayton, NJ may not be Butcher Holler. Look closely and you’ll see some similarities.
Sherry has been out visiting radio stations all over the country to promote her first single, “Scarecrow Dance.” Recently Sherry had the opportunity to sing the National Anthem at a Phillies game in Philadelphia. The guy throwing out the first ball that day just happened to be Tim McGraw. “The other 45,000 people didn’t bother me- but having Tim McGraw watching me sing, that’s tough.” Lynn did so well that they invited her back to sing “God Bless America,” a couple of days later.
Sherry Lynn launched her full-scale performing career in her native Garden State, opening for Sammy Kershaw this spring at the historic Pittman Theatre, a theatre that has played host to many greats, including New Jersey native, Frank Sinatra. “It wasn’t the Ryman,” said Lynn. “However, for me it was awesome to play that legendary stage in my home-state.”
