Guitarist

Monterey County Weekly’s

Best Local Musician 2010/2011

According to his Cheeky Spanks band-mate Jill Childers, John Sherry is “a consummate musician, a great player as well as a great teacher.” He not only “dazzles audiences,” but is “a big driving force behind the band… pushing each of us to new boundaries.” Sherry, known affectionately by band members as “Mr. Clean” or “Sir John,” is the perfectionist in the band, which might account for his unique ability to play flawlessly without ever using a pick.
