Holly Sherwood

Holly Sherwood is an American rock vocalist, best known for her work with Jim Steinman, providing both lead and backing vocals.

At the age of three, Holly Sherwood began her professional career as the star of Procter and Gamble's "Rosemary's Reflects" Ivory Soap commercials. As she grew, she and four of her sisters were cast in a production of Richard Rodgers' The Sound of Music, which led to appearances in no less than eighteen other productions of the show. In 1966, she was cast in the Broadway revival of Annie Get Your Gun, where her talent was noticed by the show's composer Irving Berlin, who added a new song tailored to her abilities. This was followed by an appearance in the Los Angeles premiere of Leonard Bernstein's MASS.

Later in her career, she appeared on television in Steven Bochco's Cop Rock for ABC, and was at one point part of the musical support for Saturday Night Live, performing comical jingles; she also provided background vocals for Olivia Newton-John's performance of "Let's Get Physical".

In March 1972, she embarked on a solo career with her first single, "Day by Day", a cover of a song from the popular Broadway musical Godspell (which also incorporated a medley of two other numbers from the show), produced by Tony Orlando for Rocky Road Records. Her version went to #104 on the Billboard Bubbling Under the Hot 100 chart, and also charted in the United Kingdom. In 1973, she released the song "Yesterday and You", a Top 30 single on the Easy Listening chart and #117 on the Bubbling Under chart.
