[MUSIC INTERVIEW] CHERIE CURRIE – 2025 Australian Tour Interview

Australian rock and punk fans, prepare to witness history! Cherie Currie, the trailblazing rock icon and former front-woman of the groundbreaking band The Runaways, has announced her final Australian tour. This marks the first time Currie has graced Australian stages since her debut Australian tour in 2016—and it will be her last!

As one of rock’s true pioneers, Cherie Currie exploded onto the music scene in the 1970s as the unmistakable teenage voice of The Runaways, delivering anthems like “Cherry Bomb” that redefined what it meant to be a young, fearless woman in rock ‘n’ roll so much though that she was described as the “lost daughter of Iggy Pop and Bridgette Bardot”.

Alongside her bandmates in The Runaways, she shattered barriers, inspired generations of female rockers, and cemented her place in music history.

But Cherie Currie is more than just a rock legend. She’s a style icon, celebrated for her edgy, daring style that continues to influence trends today. Her iconic corsets, platform boots, and glam-punk flair are still a source of inspiration in pop culture.

With Cherie about to head to Australia for her final tour she this week joined Subculture to talk about it. You can take a listen to the interview right here:
