Welcome
to StudioBookers '10 For Tuesdays' series. Each week we will ask a different
independent musician 10 questions relating to their craft, the independent
music industry and other music related questions.
For the first edition of '10 For Tuesdays' we have Chris Williams’s a.k.a Cherishport. Cherishport is a singer/songwriter from the south of England. He released his debuted EP ‘Safety In Numbers’ in April of 2011 and plans to release a second in early 2012. A talented guitarist, Cherishport spent the Summer of 2011 gigging and touring all over, playing at festivals, garden parties and anywhere else he could get a gig.
So lets get down to business then.
When did you start playing guitar/singing and what was the main reason behind it?
I started playing guitar around 5/6 years ago now, when I was 12 I think, possibly 13. I was in middle school and bored basically, and my friends were all doing it, so I thought I'd give it a go. I got a cheap guitar and started lessons at my school. It took a few months of frustration, but I got the basics; and then I fell in love with it. I started playing for hours everyday, and tried to progress as much as I possibly could. I've dedicated my life to music ever since.
