Ich würde lieber ein Mädchen küssen als einen Jungen wie dich

Jede Nacht

Wette Dagegen

Ohne Kopf

Kleiner Astronaut

Kein Freund von mir

Dein Haarschnitt und deine Gitarre

Wolken Zucker Himmel

POWERPOP AND 60s BEAT FROM ESSEN

2004, Essen. A mix tape was needed to sweeten the drive through the bleak Ruhr area. So, Vero, founder and guitar player of the band, sits down and simply writes some songs herself. Out of the mix tape The Cherrypops arise - a band which has been playing live since 2007 across clubs in the Ruhr area and surrounding areas.

So, what's the Cherrypop sound? It's sweet but can also be rough and intermixed between sweet melodies and a crisp beat coming from a 60s attitude and charming abstruse German lyrics. The songs merge power pop verve with 1-2-3 punk riffs. Easygoing and full of energy the girls and boys from Essen and Düsseldorf jump on to the roller coaster of great emotions, lost hopes and absurd encounters without taking themselves too seriously.

In March 2011 the debut album  „Wolken Zucker Himmel“ was released on Essen's independent label New Lifeshark. Since then, the Cherrypops' songs are not only heard on Vero's private mix tape but also on the radio. The Title song 'Wolken Zucker Himmel' with its hymnal sky-storming love of life managed to get on to the international girl band compilation 'Hellbound Honeys' of Australian cult label 'Off The Hip' and on to the hit lists of 1Live, Radio FSK and Radio Eins. 

2013 The Cherrypops record their first 7“ vinyl single ¡POP!  with a new line-up at Bart El Monte Studios in Dortmund. The single will be released on 06.12.3013. With ¡POP!  The Cherrypops from Essen finally deliver a fresh supply of cherry sweet pop hits. The new mini album lives up to its expectations  and gives the fans six power songs all about the ups and downs of life. 

¡POP!  is catchy, dreamy, really sour and straight forward. Six pop songs with haunting melodies throw  pop, rock & power pop into one pot and add some strong seasoning with a pinch of 60s garage, a little bit of New German Wave with charming abstruse German lyrics.
