“The Sheryl and Tom Duet set a fresh contemporary standard for close two-part harmonies infused and influenced by early rock and roll.”


 



 



 

 

Sheryl and Tom perform as a duet, trio, and also with full band, in festival environments.

 

Their music is clean and suitable for all age groups, and their mission is to have fun and get toes tapping.  A fun, roots-rock-pop-blues band based in the north suburbs of Chicago, Sheryl and Tom have been performing for the public since 1998.  Their set list includes a generous amount of rock, blues, ballads, and pop oldies, along with their own original music, which is inspired by everyday living in the Chicagoland area.
