Cherry Yachtsman
Hailing from Kent, Ohio, Cherry Yachtsman is an indie folk rock band that weaves intimate tales through a fusion of folk melodies and indie aesthetics, drawing inspiration from their Midwestern surroundings. Lead vocalist Ryan McCarthy’s comforting melodies, coupled with Josh Khavari’s intricate guitar work sets the stage for exciting folk jams. With drummer Katie Custer and bassist Arick Samoros providing the rhythmic backbone, the band creates a rich tapestry of sound that invites audiences to dance and cry. Beyond their recorded works, Cherry Yachtsman’s live performances are a testament to their improvisational spirit, where each song takes on new life, embracing the spontaneity of the moment and forging deeper connections with their listeners. – Kevin Walton, Full Sail Magazine
