Sherri Chekal is the art director at Westvon Publishing and she started on the 5 string banjo as a student of Dave's back many years ago as a 16 year old kid. After learning many other instruments as a child such as the violin, piano, flute and guitar, it was the 5 string banjo that caught her attention and stuck. Tagging along with Dave to numerous festivals, shows and jams taught her to love the music and now as an adult, she is devoted to the music in many ways. She is the editor of the popular BuckeyeBluegrass.com and MichiganBluegrass.com websites, as well as offering her graphic talents to several bands through websites, promotion and writing talents. She plays with the Deep Water Bluegrass band in Ohio. She homeschools her two daughters and is quite the Renaissance woman of talents and skills.
