Cheryl Arena
Another cousin of mine is also a Blues musician. Cheryl Arena grew up in the Boston area. She loved music from an early age and played several instruments before settling on the harmonica as her main focus, which she has been playing since 1987. She spent the first few years honing her skills on harp sitting in the drivers seat of a limousine, on the job, while waiting for clients. In 2005 Cheryl moved to Dallas, Texas finally realizing her dream of moving south to a warmer climate and finding more music work. Cheryl is working with several bands in the DFW metroplex.
