Winnipeg 4-piece formed by Peterson and Maxfield in Niagara Falls before relocating to Manitoba in 1982. They started playing mostly cover tunes and before long were opening for name brand acts such as Nazareth and k.d. lang.
By 1984 they had tired of the cover tune scene and headed into the studio with some original material to produce 1985's 'Swimming To Work'. The Bob Rock produced single, "Shot With Our Own Guns", about racial violence in South Africa, was released in 1986 and featured an independently financed video which saw some airplay in the Prairies.
The Cheer continued their association with Bob Rock (and Paul Hyde, both of Payolas fame) and apparently produced another full-length album with the duo producing in the late 1980's.
