Master of Ceremonies

Taylor Sherrill

Taylor Sherrill makes up one half of Brett & Taylor Mornings on 94.9 Star Country! She was born and raised in Central Virginia and started her broadcast career as a sophomore at Liberty University doing nights at Top-40 radio station K92. Taylor earned a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism and continued in broadcast as a television news reporter in the Roanoke-Lynchburg market, before getting married and moving to Roanoke. She returned to the airwaves on 94.9 Star Country and currently co-hosts the morning show with Brett Sharp from 6A-10A. Taylor loves putting a smile on listeners’ faces, especially when it’s at her expense!

With an alarm clock that goes off at 3 A.M., two things are non-negotiable each morning: hot coffee & time with the Lord! When Taylor is not on the air, she enjoys studying the Bible, reading, doing puzzles, serving the homeless, baking and spending time with her husband, Logan.
