Another Cherry Head!NEWSYet another Cherry Head!

Welcome to the official website of Barnsley's finest entertainer- Dave Cherry! Since 2005 Dave has been working tirelessly to raise money for Barnsley Hospice, recording numerous singles and making appearances on TV and Radio, recordings of which can be viewed on this website.

Although Dave attributes much of his success to the skills of his producer, Jimmy Echo, it's his trademark sense of humour and Barnsley dialect and lyrics that have struck a chord with people throughout his hometown.

To date Dave has raised over £30,000 for Barnsley Hospice, around £20,000 of which has come from CD and DVD sales and the remaining £10,000 from concerts.

On the media page you'll find song and video clips from Dave's recordings - a list of which can be found on the discography page - and elsewhere on the site you can look at press cuttings, pictures and jokes.

The lyrics to Stairfoot Rarndabart and The Old Club Trip are also online for your viewing pleasure, written in the Barnsley dialect that is the trademark of Dave's songs.

You can also find out all you need to know about Dave on the biography page.

30/08/2008 - Hello! Long time no 'see'! A few new jokes for you from our Dave.

14/07/2008 - At last - the full video to Stairfoot Rarndabart is uploaded. Check it out on the media page. Dave decided to put the video online in full because of persistent bootlegging threatening sales of the DVD, all profits of which went to charity. As such, if you like the DVD and appreciate Dave's work, you might like to donate to the Barnsley Hospice.

06/07/2008 - The gigs page has been taken away and the information is now viewable on this page! Check it out below, just click on the picture and it will take you to the big version. A new gig has been added - Dave will be playing live, with friends, at Barnsley's Cutting Edge, on Wednesday July 16th. Be there or be square! All profits, as usual, to Barnsley Hospice.

Dave has joined the Myspace generation! Check him out and add him as a friend to help spread the word.

29/06/2008 - Multi-mega update! Wayne Smallman from the blog BlahBlahTech believes Google should live up to its 'Do No Evil' mantra and donate some money to Barnsley Hospice as a goodwill gesture after thousands of people watched Dave's video 'Stairfoot Rarndabart' on YouTube without paying just £4 for the DVD.
Full article can be read on the Press page, as can an appeal Dave wrote in the Barnsley Chronicle for pictures of the old threepenny bit kiosk from the bus station in Barnsley.
