Guilty (Digitally Remasterd)
Sherma Andrews’ Guilty is a sleek, confidently crafted pop record with room to breathe. The production is clear and spacious; every part lands where it should, and Andrews’ voice sits at the center with effortless authority. Her writing pulls from lived experience without melodrama, and the arrangements fold folk, blues, jazz, R&B, and a touch of cinema into one coherent, satisfying whole.
“Run” kicks the door open with nimble percussion and a defiant pulse. “Something ’Bout the Way You Love Me” follows like a modern anthem—big, bright, and built to move a crowd. “Lost” brings in symphonic weight without getting heavy-handed. “Here” tips its hat to Americana, warm and steady, while “Insane” throws sparks, blending styles without losing the plot. The jazz-limbed “Rain” dances on the drums; the title track, “Guilty,” rides a supple bass line; “Looking for Something” softens into intimate guitar and close-mic vocal. Closer “I Will Love You in This Song” gathers the threads and ties a clean bow—sweeping, assured, and earned.
Polished but never plastic, Guilty shows Andrews in full command: voice, story, and sound aligned. It’s an album that chooses clarity over clutter and lands on optimism without blinking.

Sherma's Biography
Sherma Andrews was born the youngest in a musically gifted family living in the Caribbean Island of Trinidad and Tobago. As a child prodigy, Sherma began playing the accordion at age 4. Her perfect pitch and her ability to play any song after only one listening led her to serve as the church organist at age 7. In retrospect, she was always destined for a bright future in music.
Further, as a youngster, Sherma became a positive force in her community. Coming from a family that believed in giving, at an early age Sherma established herself as a messenger of hope through song. She participated in organizations dedicated to helping those that were less fortunate. Additionally, with her family, they offered meals and songs that comforted disadvantaged Trinidadians.

Sherma was then awarded a National Merit Scholarship for gifted youth to study at the accredited Berklee College of Music, Boston MA.
