BIO
"Shari
Lynn is an energetic new artist who is poised to catch the attention
of country fans everywhere." - Jason McCoy, The Road Hammers.
Born
in Barrie ON Canada , Shari Lynn grew up listening to many different
styles of music. Over
the years, Shari was able to develop herself as a performer having
started out in a tribute band traveling and performing across Canada
and the USA at casinos, bars as well as headlining fairs and festivals
of up to 32,000 people. Her success with her tribute band soared
in 2003 when Shania Twain was so impressed with Shari, that she
invited Shari onstage with her at the ACC in Toronto in front of
18,000 fans. A short time after, CTV invited Shari to be a special
guest on Canada AM with Shania Twain co-hosting the show. Ultimately
in 2007 while Shari began recording her debut album, Shania Twain
requested Shari Lynn to perform for her family in Gogama ON just
outside of Timmins .
"It
was a big honor that Shania wanted me to perform for her family
and getting started as a tribute artist was a great learning experience
and a stepping stone for who I am today."
2009
proved to be an exciting year for Shari as she continued to climb
the Canadian country music ladder and was signed to a distribution
deal with Louis O'Reilly of 306 Records/EMI Music Canada landing
her debut album titled ‘Can You
Cut It?' in stores July 14, 2009. Shari was interviewed
by Casey Clarke for the Chevy Cross Canada Countdown on CMT, toured
Western Canada and Ontario as well as appeared in many newspaper
articles and did many radio interviews. The CCMAs highlighted Shari's
talent by printing an article and had it featured on their website
for the month of July raving about Shari 's musical climb with ‘CCMA
On The Horizon With Shari Lynn'. The article quotes,
“The CCMA quickly found that many people in the industry will attest
to her undeniable talent.”
Not too
shabby for a debut album to be working with the likes of award winning
producers Helio 'Allan' Coelho (TAPPS/The Macarena) and Tom McKillip
(Aaron Pritchett/Lisa Brokop/One More Girl) and mixed by award winning
engineers L. Stu Young (Prince) and Kevin Churko (Shania Twain/Ozzy
Osbourne.) The album also includes much sought after musicians John
Dymond, Wendell Ferguson, and Jorn Andersen, as well as Randle Currie
and Justin Williamson, who are currently on tour with Brad Paisley.
Her
debut single, “Love Somebody” received radio play nationally, and
her follow up singles “You Don't Know Jack”, "Play Now"
are currently at radio with another release "I Love Myself
More" hitting radio spring 2010. The debut single “Love Somebody”
was also crafted into a beautiful video, which can be found online
at www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xr8406BqB0w
and her most recent video scripted with the dream of winning
the lottery titled 'Play Now' and filmed using some high-end exotic
cars supplied by The Ultimate Car Collection can be viewed

.
Shari
has a busy schedule for 2010 as she plans to start recording her
second album with Tom McKillip and Kevin Churko in the spring as
well as she will be shooting a music video in March for her new
single as well as she will be embarking on a Canadian tour this
summer around her recording schedule and attending the CCMA's (Canadian
Country Music Awards) this year in Edmonton.

"Shari is better than two thirds of what is on the radio now.
She is definitely super star material, she's got a million dollar
personality and she's cute too!."
~ Charlie Louvin (The Louvin Brothers)
“Shari
Lynn has some of the best ears in the business! A pleasure to work
with!”
~
Kevin Churko (Producer/Engineer - ShaniaTwain/Ozzy Ozbourne)
"It was in 2004 that Shari decided to pursue her dreams of
becoming an original artist. I was back stage with her at the Grand
Ole Opry when Little Jimmy Dickens came up to her and said, 'I know
you, you're Shari Lynn!' Everywhere we went people warmed to her.
Another nice touch was when a fan showed up with a brand new Chevy
truck with the windows tinted with her pictures on them and a license
plate that read 'SHRILNFN'."

Cindi Marx (personal friend of Shari Lynn)
