Cherry Pickles Cherry Pickles Will Harden Your Nipples

Conceived over a bucks fizz binge in Birmingham UK early 2018, Cherry Pickles comes at you like the base- ment band you always wanted to start. Priscila B brings from Brazil her love of early Tropicalia and the kind of lets be bad attitude that can only come from a land chock full of Catholic guilt. Mimi B brings her love of stripped down, bare essential rhythm. If two drums are good enough for Peggy ONeill then they should definitely be good enough for you. Together they bonded over a mutual love of 50s malt-shop-pop, 60s minimalist garage, no wave, fuzz and all forms of outsider art. Art damaged isnt a slur, its a compliment. Anything lost in translation with this transatlantic duo only doubles the charm. Played entirely on thrift store instruments with the kind of enthusiasm and naiveté severely lacking in a lot of todays music this is not some clever reimagining or ironic take on lo-fi, this is the real deal! Technique and skill be damned, the message comes through strong and that message is Dont think about it, just cross the line and enjoy it. All rolled together with gum, glitter and stickytape in the studio by fellow Birmingham noisemakers Black Mekon, the result is slightly wrong-sounding but infectious one-minute-garage-pop with gusto. One guitar, 2 drums, the basement band you always wanted to start.
