Cosy Sheridan From Carnegie Hall to the Dr Demento Show to the Cowgirl Hall of Fame. Count these, and almost everywhere in between, as stops along the way for Cosy Sheridan and her music. Cosy has garnered top honors from the country's most prestigious songwriting contests: The Kerrville Folk Festival's NewFolk Award, The Telluride Bluegrass Festival's Troubador Award, and the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival Songwriting Showcase Award. She has five cds on the Waterbug and WindRiver/Folk Era record labels. Her song, "Too Much Time", was included on the critcally acclaimed Putamayo compilation cd, Shelter in 1994. She has taught songwriting at The Swannanoa Gathering in Asheville, North Carolina for the past three summers. Two of her articles for Acoustic Guitar Magazine were recently included in the instructional book, Performing Acoustic Music, published by Acoustic Guitar Magazine. Cosy travels with her yoga mat but without her gallbladder. She's candid, compassionate, and very sharp. Cosy will talk about anything on stage, from body piercing to a more user-friendly Barbie Doll, the loneliness of her elderly neighbor, or how small and humble things in life, like ants, can sew your heart back together. She can bring tears to your eyes, from sadness or from laughter.
