Andersonlane - I Used To Be So Blue

Lead vocalist and songwriter Cheryls grew up in a shed on the tablelands of the New England. She credits this upbringing to helping her connect with the truth, to believe in the value of the ordinary, and it’s reflected in her writing style.

Early in January 2019 Andersonlane released their debut album This Girl earning Cheryls the title of The 2020 I.C.M.A Female Artist of the Year as well as This Girl taking out the 2020 2RRR Album of the Year. Cheryls was also nominated for the 2019 Southern Stars Female Rising Star Award, and multiple other song writing award nominations lead to all 4 radio tracks released from the album gaining recognition on the charts. Cheryls has worked with hit songwriters including Allan Caswell, Bill Chambers, and Luke O’Shea but to name a few. Cheryls is on the never-ending quest toward her destination of writing better songs, hand carving a career along the backroads and highways, with a vocal ability that reminds her audiences what good country music is all about.

The highly anticipated second album The Fight was released in 2021 and has sprung forth gaining immediate recognition by being named in the CCMA Top 10 Traditional Country Albums of 2021. In conjunction with that award The Fight was nominated for The 2021 ICMA Album of the Year and Single of the Year along with Cheryls nominated for Artist of the Year. The track “Waiting for Apocalypse” from The Fight, co-written with Bill Chambers was announced as a semi-finalist in the renowned International Song Writers Competition, making it into the Final 9% of more than 26,000 entries worldwide.

The 2021 Dusty Boots Awards in Dubbo also saw Cheryls taking home The Ron Varty Memorial Award for her services and contributions to Australian Country Music.
