My Music

Coming to you from California, Tai Cheri has spent her lifetime creating her unique sound. Starting to play piano at age three, then picking up the violin and various instruments thereafter, and embarking on the journey of songwriting, there is no doubt that her dream is now finally being realized.

​

Tai Cheri began as a classically trained violinist and has evolved into the musician you now hear today. She played in the elementary school orchestra, a string ensemble, and the Santa Cruz County Youth Symphony, only to be drawn to the school jazz bands as she grew up. Finding a love of contemporary music was only the beginning as she decided to hone in her skills and love by attending Berklee College of Music.

​

She has played with many performers such as Eguie Castrillo, Jethro Desilva, Oscar Castro Neves, Prince Lawsha, Paul Cantos, Mark Woods, Burt Bacharach, and more. She has been seen at notable clubs and venues in the Boston area as well as the San Jose Jazz Festival, Santa Clara's Mission City Cafe, and the Kuumbwa Jazz Club in Santa Cruz, California.
