August 24, 2026Cherry Bombs at Stephen Talkhouse
Stephen Talkhouse has thoroughly enjoyed having the Cherry Bombs perform at our venue. They always come in with a professional attitude, well prepared and ready to put on a great show. They bring a strong crowd that can pack the room for our early slots, and they’ve adapted seamlessly to our late-night sets as well.
Their female-forward, high-energy setlist is a fun mix of ’80s new wave—not necessarily the obvious songs, but the ones you immediately recognize and are happy to hear. We’ve watched the Cherry Bombs grow from the beginning and are thrilled to have them as part of our regular rotation. Peter Honerkamp

It was a pleasure performing in support of the important mission of South Fork Bakery and helping to raise funds for the Neurodiverse Community at the Parrish Art Museum, which you organized so beautifully. Thank you so much for asking us to be part of it!

August 18, 2026The Cherry Bombs Are Truly “The Bomb” at Main Beach! 🎶💣 🍒
This year was the second time I listened to a live concert by The Cherry Bombs at Tuesdays on Main Beach in East Hampton.
Indeed, they are the bomb! 💣🎶 So amazing, so talented, and such a beautiful and gorgeous group of young people.
Especially the red-haired girl, Lola, she won my heart! ❤️ I have always loved red-haired girls since I am a redhead too, and my first book is A Diary of a Red-Haired Girl. 📕
They are truly amazing. I enjoyed their songs, their music, and the wonderful atmosphere they created. Super cool!
I love them and could listen to them all the time.
Wishing all of them tremendous success and happiness. Go, guys, go! Keep rocking! 🎸🎶❤️
With love,
Sissy

About
Born at the legendary Stephen Talkhouse in the Hamptons, The Cherry Bombs are a female-centric 80s powerhouse known for high-energy performances, distinctive style, and a multigenerational take on one of music's most unforgettable decades.
Founded by bassist and costume designer Yuka Silvera, The Cherry Bombs bring together powerhouse vocals, drums, bass, guitars, keyboards, and cello for a visually striking live show. Their sets move through New Wave, synth-pop, post-punk, dance, and rock, reimagining favorites by Blondie, The B-52's, Madonna, Prince, Duran Duran, Cyndi Lauper, Talking Heads, The Cure, Depeche Mode, Joan Jett, Pat Benatar, Michael Jackson, Eurythmics, The Go-Go's, and more.
The Cherry Bombs have become a fixture of the East End live music scene, with sold-out shows at The Stephen Talkhouse and appearances at festivals, large-scale outdoor concerts, private events, fundraisers, and galas — including Guild Hall's summer gala in East Hampton. Their blend of musicianship, theatrical visual identity, custom-designed looks, and audience connection makes them a perfect fit for corporate events, festivals, galas, themed celebrations, private parties, Pride events, and ticketed concerts throughout the Hamptons, New York City, and beyond.
In addition to their live reinterpretations of classic hits, The Cherry Bombs are developing original music, including "Parallel Universe" — pushing the band's retro-futuristic identity forward while staying true to the sound, attitude, and energy that inspired the project.
Whether performing for an intimate venue or thousands at an outdoor event, The Cherry Bombs are built around one goal: creating a live experience people remember — and a dance floor they don't want to leave.
