Artist Profile
Emmy-nominated ellen cherry (lowercase letters intentional!) is the performing moniker of Kristin Putchinski, an award winning song and story alchemist, musician and performer, based in Baltimore, MD. Mixing equal parts of pathos and humor throughout her songs, ellen cherry’s banter gives audiences a peek into a whimsical, curious mind. A recent project was a touring program (2016-2018) called Portraits in Song that showcased her love of storytelling and her passion for history and women’s equality. After a devastating car wreck caused by an intoxicated driver in 2013, cherry was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and has spent years fostering recovery and resilience, her own and others, through performance, music, and storytelling. She is in production on a new work, Recovering Eurydice, that explores the process of recovery through myth making, storytelling and song using multiple artistic disciplines.
