About Me
You’ve heard our name, you’ve seen our records, our t-shirts and our stickers. We’re probably the favor..te band of someone you know and yet we’re still a mystery to you. Well my friend, that’s okay, I’m here to fill you in and help you to get to know the coolest rock-n-roll band around, ... CHERRY BOMB! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -After taking 15 years off, WE ARE BACK WITH A VENGEANCE! We were youngsters, just having a blast when we started this thing back in the 80’s, ... but now we are looking for a broader audience, ... taking it a LITTLE more seriously (not too much though), ... and having MORE FUN!********************************************************
************************************************************
************Our music is so varied that EVERYONE will like at least ONE song on the upcoming album.
On the NEW album, (RECORDED AT COLORADO SOUND BY JP), we have a Rockabilly type song, ... a beach rocker, ... HARD ROCK, ... fun songs, ... Power Pop, ...a PUNK song, ... etc, ... to make EVERYONE HAPPY!!!****************************************************

************************We don’t take part in that "STAR-MENTALITY" Bull-Shit. We are part of the people - Normal Everyday People, just like our fans. After shows we don’t disappear into some back-room, ... we hang out with the fans, ... we drink with the fans, ... we give away albums, shirts and other cool stuff to the fans, ... HEY! they took the time, and spent the money to come see us, ... they deserve OUR RESPECT!!!

****************We PRIDE OURSELVES on having our OWN SOUND. There are SOOOO many bands out there that sound just like somebody else - we took all of our main influences of course, ... but we came up with the CHERRY BOMB SOUND! Seems like it doesn’t matter who joins or leaves the band - the CHERRY BOMB sound is ALWAYS THERE! With Jimmy Kirkwood on Bass, or Dennis Ward on lead guitar in the 1980’s, or right now with NOMIS on bass and Bobby and Rodney still in the mix, it is CHERRY BOMB! We can be VERY selective when it comes to playing. Financially we are all set, ... Rod has had 2 of his songs recorded by well known bands, and Bobby has had one song done by national act, ... so at this time we are at jobs that just pay the bills, and playing basically for fun, ... and it has been a TON OF FUN!!!******************************************************

************************************************************
**********************And another thing that sets us apart, ... WE ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT OUR FANS, AND WE HAVE FUN! Every year we do SEVERAL shows that are FREE to the fan base, ... and also give away anything and everything that we can, ... and all this takes a beating on our finances, ... but hey, ... the folks that come see us, ... they are worth it!
We have them coming in from Colorado Springs, ... Cheyenne, Wyoming, ... the Rocky Mountains, etc, ... they go out of their way to see us, ... and .. believe that we should go out of OUR way to please them! ***Rod -- -- -- --*******************************************Cherry Bomb Still Believes in Giving People Some BANG For Their BUCK!
"We don’t want to go up on stage looking like 4 people waiting for a bus, or a group of guys that just got off of work, --- there already are too many bands looking like SHIT when they hit the stage! ... We make sure that a CHERRY BOMB Show is an EVENT!!! People pay good money to come see us, ... and they deserve the very best we can give them. We wanna make sure that when we are done, and they are heading home, ... all they can think about is CHERRY BOMB!" Exclaims Rodney.
We Don’t Want Fans With Good taste, ... WE WANT FANS THAT TASTE GOOD!!!
