Sheryl appeared in the "New Faces" section of "Rolling Stone"(1993). The album featured many of the songs written by Sheryl's friends and was slow to garner attention until "All I Wanna Do" became an unexpected smash hit in the spring of 1994. Sheryl supplied background vocals to the song "The Garden of Allah" from Don Henley's 1995 album "Actual Miles: Henley's Greatest Hits"(1995).
