Meisha Herron
Meisha Herron was born and raised in Chicago and studied guitar at Columbia College. She opened for Buddy Guy in January of 2023, at his internationally known jazz and blues club, “Legends”. She now performs primarily in Virginia (but WILL travel). She is perfecting her own style of guitar playing and singing which encompasses her early blues, soul, jazz and rock influences while allowing her to incorporate her creative ideas within the songs.
She has two singles out, “Missing” and “When I Heard the News (2024)” on Spotify & Apple Music. Herron’s originals songs are songs about love, nature, community and family. She has released a 6 original song EP recorded live in Chicago with acoustic guitar and a drum accompaniment.
In 2018, Meisha visited the Northern Shenandoah Valley regions, fell in love with the great acoustic music scene and she now performs regularly at wineries, breweries, outdoor festivals and local event spaces to venues throughout Virginia.
For the last four seasons, she has been featured as an opening act at the Shenandoah Valley Music Fest at Orkney Springs Virginia for the Four Tops, Spinners, Don McLean and Mavis Staples (’24) and the Belle Grove Music festivals (Middletown, VA) two years in a row. She will also perform at various Town sponsored events in the region.
Her specialty is acoustic performances, when she can deliver songs and make them her own. If you get a chance, you should check out her live performance when she’s in your area!
