Pretty Poison is an American dance-pop and freestyle music group that originated in the mid-'80s, hailing from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The band is best known for its 1987 hit single "Catch Me (I'm Falling)," which was a top-ten hit in the U.S. and also featured in the movie "Hairspray." Their energetic and catchy tunes were synonymous with the dance music movement that swept many parts of the country during that era. Pretty Poison's lineup has centered around the charismatic lead vocalist Jade Starling and the keyboardist Whey Cooler, a duo responsible for creating the distinctive sound of the band.

Over the years, Pretty Poison continued to release new music and perform, albeit not always in the glare of the mainstream spotlight. With recent releases such as "Place In The Sun," "Let Freedom Ring," "Better Better Be Good to Me," and a refreshed remix of their most enduring song, "Catch Me I'm Falling," the band shows persistent dedication to their craft and the ability to evolve with contemporary music trends. Despite changes in the industry and the passage of time, Pretty Poison's upbeat melodies and Starling's powerful voice remain a testament to the band's lasting appeal and ongoing influence in the dance music scene.
