"DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS
HELP RAISE AWARENESS"

- Inside the church, people joined in song and prayer.  They listened
as people shared their life experiences and wiped tears that threatened
to spill down their faces...They stood to protest those lives that have
and will meet with a violent end at the hands of someone who was supposed
to love them...
Cheryl Cormier Batter and Jeff Batter wrote and 
performed "Once Again" for the service.  Cormier Batter said it took
her only one afternoon to write the lyrics to the song, a process that 
usually takes [longer].  ["After asking the Lord in prayer as to 
what He would say to the victims of violence, it's like the words were
downloaded into my brain.  I give Him all the credit."]  [Karen] Burdacki
said the song described her experience perfectly...

 

"WONDERFUL"  REVIEWED BY
SWEDISH NEWSPAPER!

Cheryl Cormier certainly doesn't show any new 
'concept' on "Wonderful" (Battcor Records) still,
this album is very colorful and touching, and its
colors tend to get brighter the more you
listen to these original compositions.  The
most essential ingredient is, of course, her
voice, which is both powerful and soft.
You could easily imagine a great stage presence.
Cormier's passion is absolutely honest, and she
is a very talented songwriter as well.
Cheryl Cormier certainly deserves European attention.

… Listening to your album was a pleasure from
beginning to end! You have a great and warm voice, show
a good hand at songwriting, and the production is strong
and clean. If you're not a big name yet, here are some songs
that should help; they are clear indications that you will
become a major player.

… I will be playing the following songs on my
show: I Wonder, Diamonds and Pearls, Wonderful and
the beautiful and terribly catchy Don't You Want Me Now…

… Thanks for your time, help and support and keep
making good country music!

A quick note to tell you how much we enjoyed having Cheryl Cormier open for Willie Nelson last Friday evening.

Understating the case, Willie's fans are devoted, and the sellout crowd of 3,200 were anxious indeed to have him hit the stage. But, Cheryl won them over on the very first song, had them cheering after her rendition of "Cryin'", and by the end of the set had the audience standing on their feet.

Cheryl has a remarkable voice and a great career ahead of her. She was a delight to work with and we wish her continued success.

Dear Cheryl,

BRAVO! Thank you for an outstanding performance at the 1994 Great American Music Fest on June 26th in Goshen.

Your spirited rendition of the National Anthem before a standing audience of over 12,000 people, sent a chill down my spine. I also received very positive comments on your original songs.

I know your talent, training and enthusiasm for music will ensure your continued success. Thanks again.

Best Regards,

Willie Nelson Concert Comfortable, Predictable

... Opening the concert was a nice turn by country singer Cheryl Cormier and her band. She has a fine, strong voice and sang some upbeat original material as well as a moving rendition of Roy Orbison's plaintive lost love song "Cryin.'"

A warm handshake and a disarming smile set the stage for what is about to come. These tools open the door for the young lady from New England and the innate abilities of Cheryl Cormier take over from there. Whether it be the plaintive renderings of a Tricia Yearwood ballad, the exuberance of a Wynonna hit or one of her own songs, Cheryl makes you glad you came to the party. Although Cheryl's recordings showcase the talents of her voice, it is when she is live on stage that one can truly appreciate the whole package that is Cheryl Cormier.

Talent, along with a seemingly unlimited desire, will put this new Englander on the national map and we are fortunate to be able to enjoy this ride. I solemnly urge you to support Cheryl and after you have experienced a live performance, along with me, you too will have that inexorable feeling of "I want to do that again."
