About Me

Chris and Doug Grimes formed The Cherry People in the early 1960's. Their career has spanned over 40 years and is still going strong. In the early years original members included Punky Meadows, Jan Zukowski and Rocky Isaac. TC Tolliver joined them later on and played with them till they broke up. TC is one great drummer! They toured for over 20 years. Some of the other great musicians that played with them are: Chris Noe (Guitar), Picky Kelly (Bass), Ricky Benick (Guitar), Zon (Conga's), Barry Brant (Drums), Zak (Drums), Andre Sokol (Bass), and Michael Fath (Guitar). Everyone went on and had great careers! Chris plays guitar, sings, and writes. Doug plays bass guitar, drums, sings, and writes. Michael Andreski plays the conga's, drums and is the head engineer of Q Studios in Falls Church, VA. Together they make up one of the finest bands on the east coast.We want to thank Michael Fath for all his great guitar work the last 3 years and wish him the best in his future endeavors. He'll always be a friend of Chris and Doug's.
