Welcome to Cherie Lily’s world! Performer, musician, songwriter, dance music producer, group fitness innovator, celebrity trainer, apparel designer, inventor, and Andrew W.K.’s vocalist, dancer, and wife – Cherie Lily is a super hero!

Born and raised in Chicago, Cherie Lily moved to New York City with Big Apple dreams in 2002. Cherie’s music and personality quickly made a mark on the downtown NYC music scene with her punk rock bands Spank and FlüRT, while also making an impact in New York City’s premiere fitness clubs like Equinox, Reebok Sports Club, and Crunch.

Since 2006, Cherie has been focusing her music skills on a genre she created called HOUSEROBICS, which fuses fitness lifestyle with her self-produced dance music. “I want to make the most exciting music possible and inspire people around the world to get sweaty,” and she’s not alone in her mission. NYC’s hottest DJs, like Roxy Cottontail, Larry Tee, DJ Nita, and Princess Superstar, have all jumped on board to show this fitness star support.

In addition to HOUSEROBICS, Cherie Lily recorded vocals on the 2008 GRAMMY nominated album "REPENTANCE", by Lee "Scratch" Perry, and on ANDREW W.K.'s 3rd studio album, "CLOSE CALLS WITH BRICK WALLS".

When not recording music or performing, Cherie helps keep celebrities in shape. A personal trainer to the stars, Cherie’s worked with artists like SIA and Sam Endicott from The Bravery.

When home in NYC, Cherie curates and produces a series of live music events entitled, "Cherie Lily Presents" at Santos Party House, highlighting some of NYC's hottest and most cutting edge performers. The concerts have showcased a wide variety of talent, from dance stars to rock bands, and each event always has Cherie's personal high-energy touch.

Like her HOUSEROBICS music, Cherie Lily’s personal style is alive with electricity. “I want to perform in clothes that are sexy, original, and fun, but also bold. It’s a strong feminine look.” Cherie's innovative designs are custom made for her performances on stage and in the gym, featuring leotards and separates to wear straight from a workout, right to the club.

Cherie Lily has been featured in ELLE magazine, the New York Post, New York magazine, CITY magazine, OUT magazine, and Rollingstone.com as one of NYC’s upcoming stars. Cherie Lily’s debut solo EP, featuring her new single “WERK”, was released on October 11, 2011. Her next EP will release early 2012, with her next hit single "DRIPPING WET".
