My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 2/27/2008
Band Website: stoneymae.com
Band Members: Cheryl Barclay is the lead singer. She arranges all harmony and often sings three part harmony on background. She makes it happen. JaVonne Armstrong is the song writer, music arranger, producer, engineer, sometimes lead singer and background vocalist. Innovator and motivator...yeah... JaVonne makes the soup and Cheryl turns it into stew...That's what's up!

Influences: JaVonne is mostly influenced by God's presence in her life and the love of a special accepting family, but musically...JaVonne grew up listening to all things soul and r&b. She has been an avid, no crazed Chaka Khan fan since forever (seriously, she's a Chakaholic. Is there a 12 step program for that?) Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, The Isley brothers, Luther Vandross, Prince, Slave, Gap Band, Cameo, Patti Labelle, Michael Jackson, Jam and Lewis, Missy and Tim, Sam Cooke, James Brown, Billie Holiday, Kirk Franklin, Floetry, Jill Scott, Angela Winbush, Erika, CeCe Winans, Yolanda Adams, Mary Mary, and I recently met my spiritual brother Tonex...I feel further inspired...for real for real.What's up y'all it's Cheryl in da house! Let's see...I grew up singing in the choir in my Baptist church and had my first solo at age 6...I'm told I was so small they had to find a stool to place me on so I'd reach up to the mic :-) My tastes and influences are pretty eclectic beginning with Gospel: J Moss, Kirk Franklin, Smokie Norful, Kurt Carr, Richard Smallwood, ALL the Winans, from Bebe and CeCe to the brothers, sisters, Mom and Pop, and Tonex, Mary Mary, Coco, the Hawkins family, Israel & New Breed and Kenny Bobien; R&B/Neo Soul: Lil Mo, Jill Scott, Slave, Cameo, Lauryn Hill, EWF, Patti Labelle, Chaka Khan, Al Green, Isley Brothers; Pop: Elton John, Mariah Carey, Christina Aguillera, Gwen Stefani, Chicago; Rock: Led Zep, Journey, Genesis, Eagles, Alanis Morrisette; Classical, Opera, House music....pretty much everything EXCEPT Heavy Metal and Country :-) I attended Manhattan School of Music in junior high, am a classically trained pianist who HATED to practice for my lessons - all 11 years of them! I never liked studying Theory either but LOVED Ear Training class with Mr. Carter :-) I occasionally direct the choir I sing in at church, hear harmony in my sleep, and in general love love love music...singing, listening and simply appreciating it.
