The Stage Newspaper described  Shàri Mjoh's voice as heartfelt soarings with such wide-ranging ability. Her touching voice is filled with heart and soul, reflecting hints of Angela Winbush and whispers of Patrice Rushen, according to renowned keyboard Player Jessica Lauren (Jean Carne, Tom Browne, Dexter Wansel and James Mason, Japan's United Future Organisation, and UK soul diva Juliet Roberts).

Former member of the quintet Masquerade (Street Wave), Shàri was invited to join chart-topping Acid Jazz Band in the late 1990s as frontwoman by Richard Walmsley artist, producer, and composer for TV. Founding member of The Beatmasters and Goldbug. 

Goldbug were a British pop band in the 1990s. The band was formed in London and Brighton in 1995 by a former member of the Beatmasters, Richard Walmsley, drummer Tony Horkins and DJ Adil Magik with a session vocalist, Sandy McKenzie, who was recruited through an advertisement in Melody Maker. Goldbug are best remembered for their UK hit single with a cover of Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love", also sampling "Asteroid" (the Pearl & Dean theme tune), and released on 15 January 1996 on the Acid Jazz label. "Whole Lotta Love" was played heavily by Chris Evans on the Radio 1 Breakfast Show, and the track entered the UK Singles Chart on 20 January 1996 at number 3, and stayed in the charts for 5 weeks. It hit the number-one spot on the ITV chart, Dance chart, and Indie chart. The band made their sole appearance on Top of the Pops on 25 January 1996, performing the song with replacement singer, Katherine Ellis. Katherine Ellis was later replaced with vocalist Shàri Mjoh, who recorded a string of songs with the band, including lead vocals on their sole follow-up single, "Real Hip Mary", which was released by EMI. 

After performing numerous live shows, a showcase at Abbey Road Studios, and appearing on British television with ‘Real Hip Mary', Shàri was invited into the EMI offices and offered a recording contract as a solo artist by then-MD of EMI Records, Clive Black. Although Shàri didn’t take full advantage of the offer due to misplaced loyalty to the band, she has continued to work successfully in the industry as a vocalist, songwriter, and electronic music producer, with TV/Film/Digital Media, and collaborations.
