Derry-based Northern Irish trio Cherym continue their rapid ascent to the zenith of pop-punk as they today announce the news that their long awaited debut album, Take It Or Leave It, is set for release on 16th February 2024 via Alcopop! Records. The trio will also hit the road later this month for a run of headline tour dates, with tickets on sale here, and Cherym will opening for Enter Shikari on their 2024 Irish tour. Cherym will be revealing further album details and live dates over the coming months.
“This album is a project that we’ve been developing for the last 6 years of our lives. Whenever we started the band the end goal was to create music that we enjoyed, and if that meant other people could relate to it and enjoy it too, then all the better. As three queer people who didn’t really fit the criteria when it came to the DIY music scene at that time, we have watched as the scene has evolved and grown into something much more inclusive and beautiful that we can now confidently say we feel like we’re part of. This album tells the story of how our lives have been transformed in the last 6 years—two EPs, lots of shows all over the world, and a few pronoun changes later…we made the record we needed to hear when we were growing up. Take It Or Leave It.”
To celebrate the news, the lead single Do It Another Day is out now on all good streaming platforms, the track is another roaring pop punk anthem that examines how an ADHD diagnosis reframed vocalist Hannah Richardson‘s perception of events in her life, and ultimately her understanding of herself. The accompanying video was shot in vocalist Hannah’s house, in her actual bedroom by director Joe Millar, because naturally, that’s where we all procrastinate the most, right?
“I was diagnosed with ADHD earlier this year and for the first time in my life I realised that I wasn’t just a complete idiot and I actually had an illness that explained why I am the way I am. I guess the diagnosis also prompted creativity and so ‘Do it Another Day’ was born. Whenever we recorded it in the studio we just knew straight away that we wanted it to be the anthem for all the ADHDers out there who, like me, struggle with productivity and finding that initial bit of motivation you need to clean your room, or do laundry, or sometimes even get a shower…because that’s the reality of living with ADHD. If this is you, we really hope this song allows you to feel heard ‘n’ we love u x” (Hannah Richardson)
