Sherie Julianne’s journey to singing Brazilian music was not what she expected. Sherie was a child of musicians in Miami, studied and taught dance in San Francisco, and spent the past decade working at the Jazzschool in Berkeley with Marcos Silva, her mentor. Silva, a Rio de Janeiro native, is Julianne’s collaborator in the singer’s stunning debut, 10 Degrees South. Her Azul do Mar label will release the CD on July 29, 2014. www.jazzcorner.com
