CHERINE
ANDERSON
In our modern day parade of
glamour, glitz and unmerited
superstardom, Cherine Anderson
has taken today's road less
traveled; the path of paying
dues, cultivating her abilities
and developing her signature
Dancehall Soul sound; a mixture
of reggae, dancehall, soul and
r&b. After the past two years of
constant work by the songstress,
the name Cherine Anderson has
become synonymous with several
titles: chart topping and award
winning singer, thought
provoking songwriter, award
winning actress, music video
director, magazine cover model,
dynamic stage performer, vibrant
collaborator and fashion forward
stylista.
Having collaborated and toured
extensively with the prolific
Michael Franti & Spearhead and
the legendary Sly & Robbie,
Jamaican singer-songwriter
Cherine Anderson already
positioned herself as "one to
watch". She also appears on
official remixes with major
recording artists Madonna,
Britney Spears, Sir Paul
McCartney and Wyclef Jean. Now,
with the release of The
Introduction-Dubstyle EP, fans
of Anderson and her signature
DancehallSOUL sound can finally
own some of her infectious
melodies.
IN THE MOVIES:
At age 14, Cherine's formal
professional career began when
she starred in one of Jamaica's
most successful films, Dancehall
Queen. In 2003, Cherine combined
her two loves, singing and
acting, starring in the film One
Love. Her voice lent two
heartfelt songs to the film's
soundtrack, and her acting
talents earned her the MTV2/Urbanworld
Film Festival Award for Best
Actress in a Feature Film.
Anderson returned to acting in
2007 to star in MTV Tempo's
interactive drama Choices.
