The Cherokees has been played on NTS in shows including Diddy Wah, featured first on 24 January 2017. Songs played include Dig A Little Deeper.

There have been more than one group that recorded as The Cherokees.

The Cherokees were one of the alter egos of The Champs, known for their 1958 hit Tequila.

Named after a popular ice cream of the time, the Cherokees were formed in 1961 from the remnants of Johnny Chester's backing band the Chessmen and began playing Shadows-styled music around Melbourne, Australia.

Signing with W&G Records, the Cherokees released two singles and the rare Here Come the Cherokees album in 1965. They began playing pop reminiscent of the Beatles and moved to the short-lived Go! label. Several of their singles made the Top 40 in Melbourne. By 1967, the Cherokees were playing swing-styled music and several more singles again made the Melbourne Top 40. An album followed, Oh Monah!, but with the collapse of Go!, the band was left without a deal. Despite releasing one more single on Festival records and supporting the Monkees during their tour of Australia in October 1968, the Cherokees broke up at the end of the year. ~ Brendan Swift, Rovi

The Cherokees were a beat band of the mid-1960s based in Leeds, United Kingdom. They recorded several singles for different labels including Decca, Columbia and MGM. After that they evolved into New York Public Library.

There is a cover version of The Coasters' 'Poison Ivy' on the box-set, Fab Gear: The British Beat Explosion and its Aftershocks 1963-1967, credited to a band called The Cherokees. This recording was only recently discovered. Were this The Cherokees from Leeds, listed as #3 above? Possibly. Possibly not. It is sadly unknown.
