Cherry Glazerr is back today, releasing a new single and video entitled ‘Juicy Socks.’ The band rocks out in the Jessica Nicole Collins-directed video surrounded by a hedonistic brawl inside a neon-lit party bus. ‘Juicy Socks,’ an infectious rocker, is the first new music to be released by the Los Angeles three piece since 2017’s Apocalipstick and is a preview of music the band is currently recording for their forthcoming new LP via Secretly Canadian.
Frontwoman Clementine Creevy has this to say about the new single: “Juicy Socks is about vocalization. Using one’s voice as a strong weapon and needing to be heard in order to not feel like shit. Oh also, it’s about wanting to smash Donald Trump’s orange fuckin’ head into a brick wall!”

Cherry Glazerr (now a three piece featuring Clementine Creevy on guitar/vocals, Tabor Allen on drums and Devin O’Brien on bass) will play Coachella on Saturday April 14 and 21.
The band spent much of 2017 on the road throughout the US and Europe, playing 127 shows total and including dates alongside The Flaming Lips, Spoon, Foster The People, Slowdive and others – plus their own headline shows and festival appearances at FYF, Panorama, Osheaga, and Pitchfork. Most recently, Cherry Glazerr performed with The Breeders in Los Angeles.
Apocalipstick earned Cherry Glazerr nods of approval throughout the media. Rolling Stone, KCRW and NME all deemed the band as one to watch. Guitarist/vocalist Clementine Creevy was featured on the cover of She Shreds magazine and has been steadily highlighted in publications like NYLON, Rolling Stone, and Billboard.
About Cherry Glazerr:
Hell hath no fury like a Cherry Glazerr guitar riff. The project of headstrong guitarist/vocalist Clementine Creevy, Cherry Glazerr was dreamed up in Creevy’s Los Angeles bedroom in her teenaged years, a solo vision that has since blossomed alongside Creevy’s own evolution as an artist.
Things look radically different for the band compared to the early days in 2014, when Cherry Glazerr was associated with much-loved Cali imprint Burger Records (who put out intoxicating debut, Haxel Princess) and Suicide Squeeze (who released the Had Ten Dollaz 7-inch). Apocalipstick, Cherry Glazerr’s first release for Secretly Canadian, is the howling soundtrack of the project’s rock star expansion, Creevy’s singular vision brought to life and built out by Sasami Ashworth‘s synths and vocal harmonies and drumming from Tabor Allen. The resulting record rings loud in every way: a deafening, adrenaline-infused guitar-heavy exploration carved out by a heavy dose of tongue-in-cheek humor and self-deprecation.
Since then, Cherry Glazerr has continued to build up momentum. A Rolling Stone feature christened the project an “Artist You Need to Know,” while KCRW and NME both named Cherry Glazerr as one to watch. Creevy graced the cover of She Shreds magazine, and has been featured extensively in the likes of NYLON, Rolling Stone, and Billboard. Of Apocalipstick’s lead single, “Told You I’d Be With the Guys,” Pitchfork noted it was “a massive step forward.”
In addition to building out Cherry Glazerr’s studio sound, the band brought its raucous live show to cities across both the US and Europe, playing 127 shows in 2017 including dates with Slowdive, The Breeders, Spoon, The Flaming Lips, and at festivals like SXSW, Panorama, and Pitchfork. This year finds them playing both Saturdays of Coachella, touring with Portugal. The Man and teasing new music on the horizon – most notably in the standalone, just-released single ‘Juicy Socks.’
