Pop Cherry
About the Band
Toronto based POP CHERRY is a burnin' rock-outfit whose main influences include The Stones, The Doors, and southern rockers, The Black Crowes. Headed by front-man Joey Varone, (former lead singer of Polygram recording artist The Dice) along with former members of Alannah Myles, Sheriff & Burton Cummings.


POP CHERRY recorded their debut album "STRAIGHT UP", with veteran producer Mark S. Berry, who's gold and platinum production credits include L.A., The Headstones, I Mother Earth, The Killjoys, David Bowie, and many more. Special guest appearances on the album include Burton Cummings, whose jangling piano propels the band into rock n' roll wonderland.

POP CHERRY will be hitting up rock radio this summer with their initial single and video "Where Did I Go Wrong" and backing it with a U.S. and Canadian tour. Joey and company are 100% about their live show and getting the energy from the stage and into fans and listeners alike. To quote Joey "We love to get in people's faces and rock their world!"
