Cherri & the Violators
Description: Northern Michigan based Cherri and the Violators explore the glory days of the mid 70's where songs that rocked were informed by the blues but were well removed from the Delta. That's not to say that blues fans won't find familiar sounds here. They will, but they aren't the standard boogies and shuffles. Instead, the blues creeps in by way of the band's self penned lyrics and the terrific guitar work of Tony Burke who sounds like he has spent equal amounts of time listening to Jimmy Thackery, Robin Trower and Johnny Winter. Lead vocalist Cheryl Bendig delivers the songs in a voice that has the raw power of Janis Joplin but the finesse of Ann Wilson.
