Meet Cherish Lee. She is quickly becoming known as country music’s “rebel with a heart of gold”! She’s not only an artist, but an honest to God, down and dirty servant to all those that are beat down and in need of love. Whether animal or person, Cherish has always had a heart to help them. To all those she helps, she’s a tattooed princess, but she’s not all angel! Cherish Lee refuses to play by some of the country music industry’s biggest rules! In Lee’s own words, “I refuse to pay money to make it on the ‘music charts!’ I want it to happen, because I worked my ass off, and people actually want to hear my songs! What happened to passion, story telling, rebels with a cause, and music that had its merits in how DAMN good it was, and how it made you feel? Our forefathers in music would be ashamed of us.” Lee’s album cost less than $1,500 to record, reminiscent of Nirvana’s first album, “Bleach”, which cost $600.
