The Cherry People’s album And Suddenly captures the energy and optimism of the 60s D.C. rock scene, blending pop, psychedelia, and rock into a sound uniquely their own. Rising to prominence in the wake of the British Invasion, The Cherry People took the nation’s capital by storm, building their reputation at local clubs before recording their debut album in New York. But what happens when a local sensation meets the challenges of national fame?
In this episode, host Philip Basnight sits down with The Currys, an Americana trio from Charlottesville, VA, to dig into the band’s journey from D.C. rockers to national recording artists. We explore how And Suddenly reflected the influences of its time, discuss standout tracks like the title song “And Suddenly,” and reflect on the band’s impact on the broader 60s rock landscape. Plus, The Currys share their own thoughts on the British Invasion’s effect on American bands and how The Cherry People fit into the fabric of that era’s music.
So, cue up your headphones and join us as we travel back to the swinging 60s to rediscover one of D.C.’s pioneering rock bands.
