CHERINE SET TO TOUR US 

cherine2  

Scorching Dancehall-Soul artist Cherine Anderson is set to embark on a six week tour of the US, alongside reggae legends Sly & Robbie and popular indie bands Slightly Stoopid and Pepper. Anderson, along with Sly & Robbie is ready to deliver an electrifying set featuring songs to appear on her upcoming EP release entitled "The Introduction".

This is Anderson's second time touring the US with the Riddim Twins and she looks forward to sharing her brand of soulful and prolific reggae music with this new audience.

When asked if she was nervous about being the only female on the tour Anderson stated, "I am so excited about the opportunity to tour and perform live for so many new fans. I expect this audience will be more 'indie' than traditional dancehall or reggae, so I see it as a great opportunity to share my Dancehall Soul sound with a new crowd. Plus, the guys look out for me, they are very protective. " READ MORE.
