Cheri Maracle is a singer/songwriter whose unique, eclectic expression is inspired by her Mohawk ancestry and nomadic upbringing across Canada. Maracle’s early musical influence, that of women’s handrum groups, is woven throughout her original compositions. Her musical style, a fusion of genres including roots, rock, jazz and blues is predominated by her passionate and powerful voice, best described as soulful and engaging, haunting and evocative. Cheri’s highly anticipated debut album Closer to Home, released in 2006, is a reflection rooted in a challenging life that threads stories about identity, pride, Aboriginal issues, love and the human spirit. Subsequently Cheri was nominated for Best New Artist and Best Songwriter for the Aboriginal People’s Choice Music Awards 2007, Best Female Artist for the Canadian Aboriginal Music Awards 2007, and in the Best Alternative Rock, and Best Pop categories for the Indian Summer Music Awards 2008. Cheri has performed nationally and internationally at the following festivals and concerts; the Ottawa Blues Festival, the Illuminato Festival, The Barrie Jazz and Blues Festival, National Aboriginal Solidarity Day @ The Forks, Winnipeg, and RezStock. Cheri has toured throughout Germany and Switzerland with Gerry Alfred and the Medicine Beat. She was a featured performer at the Canadian Aboriginal Music Awards 2007, and at the Aboriginal People’s Choice Music Awards 2007. She has had the honour of sharing the stage with music legend Buffy St. Marie, and renowned artists Shane Yellowbird, Derek Miller, Leela Gilday, Tanya Taguaaq and more…. Albums are available through Indiepool.com, iTunes, at various Chapters, Indigo, and HMV outlets throughout Canada, and through Cheri’s site HYPERLINK "http://www.myspace.com/cherimaracle" www.myspace.com/cherimaracle Cheri’s second album, If I am Water, is anticipated for a 2009 Winter release. jazzcheri@yahoo.ca
