Our Mission
Cherry Pop Records aims to create a community where students can gain valuable, hands-on music industry experience working directly with artists to create, distribute, and promote records. We work to strengthen connections between UCLA and the local Los Angeles music scene, as well as provide artist development opportunities for independent artists.
Our History
Launched in January of 2023 by Aliah Gaoteote, Cherry Pop Records is UCLA's independent and first student-run record label. Through Cherry Pop, artists obtain support from our Marketing, A&R, Business Affairs, Production, Visual Media, Radio, Press, and Events Departments. We also host shows and music events for the UCLA community in the Westwood area.
