[edit] Biography
The band started in 2002 in Paris, France, where they recorded their first album, Cherry Bikini (2002). During this time, Cherry Bikini achieved underground notoriety due to their hyper-explicit lyrics on songs such as Just Fuck Me (which one critic called "the perfect homage to lust"), Fingers (Inside Me), and Come So Hard.
After relocating to Los Angeles in 2003, they recorded and released their second full-length CD, Dream Days (2004). Towards the end of that year they released Remixed (2004), a collection of remixes of some of their better known songs by underground DJs and producers.
The trademark Cherry Bikini sound is characterized by Sophie Boscallini's "sexy yet detached" take on lust, set over strong electro-pop hooks and dance beats. All of their CDs to date have been self-produced and independently released. They recently released their fourth full length CD entitled "13".
