Born Cherissa Lynn Thomas in the city of Toronto, Canada, Cherissa grew up in a family of six. Her parents originally from Guyana moved to Toronto to start a new life.Growing up in a strict household, Cherissa just kept to herself; a very quiet individual some may say. Music, however, brought out a different side in her. Cherissa always stood out as one with great musical attraction. Playing her miniature piano at the age of 6, she would stay locked up in her room for hours at a time crafting original songs and melodies. Her dedication and love of music began to evolve over the years. I swear: one of the best gifts my father ever gave me was that piano. I never put that thing down.Cherissa grew up listening to a variety of music genres ranging from Motown Classics to Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson to Aaron Neville; also including sounds of Country from her mothers collections. Her influences include artists & producers such as Janet Jackson, Aaliyah, Usher, R.Kelly, Dr.Dre, Timbaland, TLC, Mary J. Blige and SWV. The list goes on.Cherissa brings her unique signature to the art she fabricates, not limiting herself to one flow or style. Having a humble attitude and passion for creating music is clearly defined in her nature. "This is not just a hobby for me, it’s my life..."...Written by Nim Rose.
