Derry Punk Rockers CHERYM Drop New Music Video For “We’re Just Friends” From Upcoming EP
With their newly announced EP Hey Tori set for release on September 30th via Alcopop! Records, Derry-based pop-punk trio CHERYM have shared the animated music video for their love song “We’re Just Friends”.
Commenting on the single, drummer Alannagh Doherty says: “This is a song we wrote after spending some time thinking about life and some of the positive aspects of it, like relationships we’ve had that we can look back on, or the relationships that have yet to come. It’s a cheesy tune about being in a very wholesome relationship with your soul mate (if you believe in that sorta stuff) and just finding who you want to be with.”
“My girlfriend would sometimes say ‘so when are you writing a song about me?’ as a joke, but I think I took it too far and now she has a song about her lmao. There is a wee bit of irony in the title because in most wlw (woman-loving-woman) relationships—or any non-heteronormative relationships—people will always presume you’re ‘just friends’ so that’s where the idea came from.”
With their brightly coloured punk sound in tow, the three friends give fans another exciting and charming taste of their upcoming release.
