Cherielynn Westrich
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cherielynn Westrich is an American musician, best known as the former vocalist/keyboardist for The Rentals. She played on their two albums, Return Of (The Rentals) and Seven More Minutes, and toured with the band. With The Rentals she was best known for her live energy, her vocal harmonies with Petra Haden and her signature bright blonde hair. Westrich also did a majority of the songwriting work on the Rentals live favorite "My Summer Girl," yet she is given no co-writing credit for having done so in the Return of the Rentals liner notes.
Prior to her time with The Rentals, she was the bassist and vocalist for Supersport 2000 who, despite having demoed "somewhere between 35 and six million songs", only released a single three-song EP (Pinkslip in 1995) and the song "Faster Kiddies" which was on the Hear You Me! compilation CD. In 2001 she played in Slow Signal Fade, who released an EP titled Kindling in 2002 and the full-length Through the Opaque Air in 2004. Westrich is no longer with Slow Signal Fade.
She currently lives in Los Angeles, where she continues to write music and pursue her other hobby, restoring vintage cars. Professionally, she is currently a member of the restoration staff on the TLC automotive program "Overhaulin'"[citation needed]. There are no current plans for her to be involved in the future of The Rentals.
