Sherwin Gardner
Performance Artist from Caribbean
Sherwin Gardner is also the former Media Director for Empowerment Temple Church, founded and pastored by Rev. Dr. Jamal Bryant, and serves as a media consultant for several churches throughout the United States and the Caribbean. With “Veiticinco”, Sherwin wants listeners to know the limitless power of the Lord, and that, despite their background, class or economic status, God can and will use anyone who desires to spread the Gospel.
What God is doing for this young singer’s career is nothing compared to how he moved during Sherwin’s birth. The middle of seven siblings, Sherwin’s arrival into the world was nothing short of a miracle. His mother had fallen ill and doctors feared she had cancer. Thankfully, the tests were negative, but it was discovered that Mrs. Gardner was 20 weeks into a pregnancy of which she was unaware. She was advised to abort the fetus for fear that it would either jeopardize her life or bear a deformed child. Despite several warnings from doctors, she refused to abort and Sherwin was born healthy and whole.
By the time Sherwin was five-years-old, he was singing and had taught himself the lyrics to Michael Jackson’s “We Are the World”. From there, his uncle, Kennedy Patterson, began to prepare him for the stage. Sherwin made his public concert debut at the Himalaya Club singing the church classic “He Touched Me”. That experience proved to be the launching pad for a music career that continues to hit new highs with every project Sherwin undertakes.
