A mostly female group from California that put out EPs and an album in the 2010s, with songs about growing up and standing your ground.
For a quick sense of their sound, try 'Paper Doll' or 'Everybody Breaks'. Both have that raw, unapologetic feel they were known for.
Cherri Bomb made music that felt immediate and unapologetic, with a straightforward energy in tracks like 'Paper Doll' and 'Everybody Breaks'. They worked in a scene that wasn't always easy for a mostly female band, and that shaped how people heard them. Their sound had some punk and grunge in it, and they wrote about things like growing up and standing up for yourself.
They formed in California's Bay Area with Julia Pierce on vocals, Nia Lovelis on guitar, Miranda Miller on bass, and Patty Schemel on drums. They put out EPs like 'This Is My Melody' in 2012 and 'Blood, Guts, and Bruises' in 2013, before releasing their album 'Higher' in 2019. The band didn't stick around as a constant presence, but for a stretch there they made music that felt direct and unpolished.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
