Biography

Oliver Cherer – the aural alchemist behind Dollboy – has
quietly gone about making a name for himself on the
margins of British underground pop music for well over a
decade now.
From his early days spent gratifyingly abusing a Theremin
in big-beat band, Cooler, to his Dollboy stage nameʼs
forays into soft-focus movements of psycho geographically
informed ambient music, Chererʼs is a restless, creative
muse. Recent collaborations have seen him fashion

soundscapes with Sone Institute whilst he also plays a part
in the cottage industry collective, Second Language Music,
currently working with Piano Magic, Isan and British
psychedelic folk legend, Mark Fry, on a soon to be
revealed project.
Dollboyʼs previous long-player was A Beard of Bees which
heralded (in customarily hushed tones) a fresh sonic
journey …ʼIf the Tardis spat Edward Elgar out into a
Shropshire glade with a Roland DX7, a guitar and no
direction home, you suspect that the results would not be
dissimilarʼ said The Times. They werenʼt far off. With that
in mind, consider Dollboyʼs newest collection of songs,
Further Excursions Into The Ulu with Dollboy.
