S H E R Y L' S BIOGRAPHY Discovered through her massive live performances, SHERYL is a revelation of the prestigious international FESPAM festival, host to stars like Joyce KELLY, Youssou NDOUR, SALIF KEITA A top vocalist thanks to her Gospel music experiences in most of her hometown choirs, SHERYL makes it a point of honour of singing in African languages (MBOCHI, LINGALA…), before using English or French. She drops mighty,warm and sensitive vocals kicking strong melodies inspired by African traditions. NU -AFRO SOUL songstress SHERYL drops an innovative African Urban music recipe blending HIP HOP flavour arrangements, R&B vibes with African grooves rooted in her native Congo Brazzaville cultural heritage. The image of a modern, progressive, inventive and daring Africa, SHERYL's music goes beyond cultural limits and stands out as a brand new page being written in her home-country Rumba and Soukous-controlled musical landscape. Funk and Soul music legacy is taken back home on the motherland just like Latin music (Cha cha cha, Rumba"mispelled term" for "NKUMBA" as it was called in the Congo), was taken back home way back in the 30's. SHERYL's collaboration with DEE SOUL IN TOWN label’s Bass guitar genius and Beat producer Francky “Moulet”MWELE has resulted in the LEMOYASSA debut album project. A Soulful and Contemporary African Urban music from the motherland with vibes so dope it cannot but get all nationalities jamming.BIOGRAPHIE DE SHERYL. Originaire du CONGO –Brazzaville, un des berceaux de la RUMBA et des musiques Latino Américaines; SHERYL dévéllope un style authentique et éclectique, le NU AFRO SOUL, complètement à contre courant du paysage musical actuel. Elle restaure les passerelles ‘naturelles’ entre le patrimoine culturel du continent mère avec celui des diaspora Afro-américaines, Caribéennes et d’ailleurs. SHERYL mélange agréablement les mélodies issues de la tradition Africaine avec des arrangements Jazzy, Soul, agrémentées de vibes R&B et HIP HOP en faisant le choix de chanter dans les langues de son pays : MBOCHI, LINGALA …en plus de l’Anglais et du Français. Vestige de ses nombreuses années de Gospel au sein des chorales de Brazzaville, SHERYL est dotée d’une voix hors pair chargée d’une sensibilité et d’une puissance émotionnelle irrésistible. Elle s’est révélée au grand public par de mémorables performances vocales dans le cadre du festival international FESPAM dont la programmation compte d’illustres vedettes tel que YOUSSOU NDOUR, SALIF KEITA…Grâce à une fructueuse collaboration avec le label DEE SOUL IN TOWN sous la coordination de l'arrangeur, Bassite et realisateur FRANCKY"MOULET" MWELE, la diva NU AFRO SOUL SHERYL nous dévoile son univers musical métis à travers son premier album LEMOYASSA . Une production Africaine innovante concoctée entre l’Afrique, les USA, l’Autriche, à l’image d’une Afrique moderne, inventive, entreprenante et fière de ses racines. |
