As well as taking us on quite the twisted journey through wealthy 'island' Richford Lake, the series centres on a scandal that rips through the local girls' school and plummets teenage best friends Grace (Imogen Faires) and Allegra (Amelia May) into the spotlight.
But along with all the drama and backstabbing also comes a catchy soundtrack that is packed full of songs, ranging from artists like Jordan Rakei, Dave and Lykke Li. The title song itself is an original one that was crafted by the show's creator and writer Nicôle Lecky, who also showed off her musical talents in previous series Mood.
She told RadioTimes.com in an exclusive chat for Pass the Mic: "It was always my intention, actually, I should say, to do the title music. I thought that was quite fun. Rotem and I got into a studio and we created the song – and that became the title track."
But what other songs feature in Wild Cherry? Read on to find out.
