Through "Digital Girl," Mandy Lee saw Cherry Bomb as a symbol of fiery resistance to the pressures of modernity.
News
Cherry Bomb, the Los Angeles-based solo project of MisterWives' Mandy Lee continues to give life to her latest single "Digital Girl," a confessional, pop-drenched tune recently shared via AWAL. Her new music video, directed by frequent collaborator Matty Vogel, captures the overstimulation of the modern world—a place full of harsh contrasts, flashing images, and impossible shapes all crammed together in one picture.
On the splashy new music video, Lee boldly asks, "Who doesn’t want to smash their phone in 2026 and be met with confetti to celebrate? In this hyper-digital day and age, it’s near impossible to not fall down the algorithmic rabbit hole of comparison spirals, curated perfection, and infinite doomscrolling. I wanted to visually represent the tension that exists between conforming to the pressure or rebelling against it and what it feels like when the two coincide."
ABOUT CHERRY BOMB
Mandy Lee is stepping into her power with Cherry Bomb — a fierce, glitter-soaked solo project born from rebellion, heartbreak, and radical self-expression. Best known as the powerhouse frontwoman of MisterWives, Lee uses Cherry Bomb as a bridge to get back to who she was before the world told her who to be.
Lee lights on the fuse on her first single, the space disco banger “Never Be Me,” which she calls “a declaration of independence about shedding a loveless love. I came home that night from working on the song and just had it blasting in my headphones, dancing around my house alone. It just felt so cathartic.” Cherry Bomb's second release “Digital Girl” is a confetti-covered, glitching TV fuzz, y2k party champagne-soaked banger for the overstimulated over-thinkers who just want to be seen for their true colors. In a world dragged around by social media likes that go up in tandem with insecurity driven self doubt, Cherry Bomb is raging against the machine in full technicolor with an unbreakable love from within.
Inspired by icons like Madonna and Blondie, the music fuses space disco, punk spirit, and diary-like confessionals into a sound that’s both danceable and defiant. This isn’t a reinvention — it’s a detonation
