Brett Sheroky

A rising Nashville star who blends '90s country and '70s rock.

Brett Sheroky, hailing from Belleville, Illinois, made the move to Nashville in 2009. Balancing his day job as a speech therapist, Brett devoted a decade to refining his songwriting craft, staying out of the music industry's limelight. This unwavering dedication bore fruit in 2020 when he secured his first publishing deal with SeaGayle Music.

In his first year under the SeaGayle banner, Brett's songwriting prowess caught the attention of major label artists, resulting in recordings by the likes of Blake Shelton and Granger Smith. His momentum continued to build as he wrote singles for notable artists such as Jake Owen, Matt Stell, Noah Thompson (American Idol winner), Bryce Leatherwood (The Voice winner), Randall King, and many others.

Not only has Brett found success as a songwriter, he has also emerged as a notable artist himself, earning a spot on country music's "Who’s Next?" list. His distinctive sound, blending '90s country with '70s rock, reflects his deep respect for the art of songwriting and resonates with listeners on a profound level. In his unplugged version of "Good Thing Going," Sheroky showcases a stripped-down style featuring bluesy guitar riffs and solos with a strong emphasis on vocal performance. The album version of the same song introduces a country fuzz distortion, adding edge to the track. His ability to navigate different sounds is further highlighted in his country-pop-influenced songs like, "The Friend Ship," and the emotionally-driven, nostalgic, "Life Ain't Always Pretty."

Brett's natural talent for connecting with his audience makes his live performances feel more like intimate experiences than traditional shows. This ability, combined with his heartfelt music, has helped him cultivate a dedicated and growing fanbase. Thanks to their enthusiastic support, Brett successfully crowd-funded his debut full-length album. Brett Sheroky's journey highlights the impact, dedication, talent, and fan support needed to achieve success in the music industry. His music is a collaborative effort, and he passionately acknowledges the contributions of the writers, musicians, and producers who help shape his sound. He encourages fans to recognize and appreciate the often-unsung heroes behind their favorite songs.
