“Sister Speak is the recording alias for Sherri Anne Nyberg. With roots stretching from Canada’s west coast to Sweden, Sherri Anne is currently exploring a deeper connection to her homeland and cultural roots through her upcoming EP, Coming Home.

For Sherri Anne, the artist behind Sister Speak, music is more than a calling. It’s a journey of transformation, vulnerability, and finding the courage to follow an unexpected path.

Before pursuing music, Sherri Anne was a Division I student-athlete at Northwestern University, where she attended on an athletic scholarship. After earning her degree in Environmental Sciences and Global Health, she experienced a profound personal awakening that shifted her perspective and set her on an entirely new course. Drawn toward a deeper sense of purpose and creative expression, she made the bold decision to pursue music, a leap of faith that would become the foundation of Sister Speak.

That journey was not without its challenges. Following a serious injury in 2012 and a period of recovery, Sherri Anne emerged with a renewed sense of purpose, channeling her experiences into the music that would become Sister Speak’s debut album. What began as a deeply personal creative pursuit grew into a powerful artistic journey, connecting with audiences through raw honesty, emotionally resonant songwriting, and socially conscious lyrics.

Known for captivating live performances, Sister Speak has cultivated a dedicated fanbase across North America and Europe. Her first four albums reflect a willingness to explore life’s most vulnerable moments and transform them into songs. As Sherri Anne puts it, each album is “a result of moments of extreme vulnerability transformed into music.”

With her fifth release, Coming Home, Sister Speak enters a new chapter. Marking her first intimate acoustic EP, the collection invites listeners into a more stripped-back, personal soundscape. For this record the emotion and the lyrics takes center stage. The release also features a special milestone: “L’amour partout,” a duet performed almost entirely in French, recorded and translated in collaboration with BC-based artist and Canadian Folk Music Awards nominee Matt Stern.

Created in collaboration with award-winning Canadian engineers Elisa Pangsaeng and Erik Nielsen, Coming Home is both a musical homecoming and a heartfelt tribute to Sherri Anne’s roots in British Columbia. The accompanying music video reflects the pull of home that grows stronger with every journey away. For an artist who has spent years touring and exploring the world through music, the record highlights the universal longing for belonging, connection, and the places that shape us.

Along the way, Sister Speak has earned recognition for her artistry and musicianship, including Best Pop at the San Diego Music Awards, 3 nominations at the SDMA’s including Best New Artist, NBC’s “Top Ten Rhythm Guitarists”, and regional finalist for CBC Searchlight. She has performed at iconic venues including Belly Up in San Diego and the Troubadour in Los Angeles, sharing stages with an eclectic range of celebrated artists, including The Doobie Brothers, Air Supply, and reggae legend Don Carlos.

Her music has reached audiences around the world through airplay on CBC, BBC, CFNR, NPR, commercial radio, and international stations, as well as “California Roots Presents” playlists. Her song “Will It Ever,” from the Love For All album, was also featured in the John Travolta/Kristin Davis film Cash Out.

Whether performing on a festival stage or sharing the intimacy of an acoustic song, Sherri Anne brings the same authenticity to her music: a commitment to honest storytelling, meaningful connection, and the lifelong dream of supporting the expression of the womans’ voice. At the heart of Sister Speak is a desire to create music that connects with the hearts of many.

For Sherri Anne, the journey from elite athletics to a life in music has been about listening to an inner voice, embracing change, and trusting the unknown. With Coming Home, Sister Speak continues to turn lived experience into music that reminds us that sometimes the most meaningful journey is the one that leads us back to our roots.”
