Described as Abba meets The Sex Pistols, Cheater Pint is a four-piece rock band with no gimmicks, no bullshit. Their in-your-face live performances can catch off guard those seduced by the accessible pop of their studio recordings.
Spectators have likened Cheater Pint to the Fastbacks, Breeders, X, Veruca Salt, Mary's Danish and the Pixies, and have been recently described as "the Go-Go's on massive steroids." Band members consider early alternative rock bands like the Replacements, Superchunk The Clash, Cheap Trick and Pavement amongst their influences.
Propelled by the success of the single "Control Freak," The 'Pint released their first full-length album in September 2007. Dark Side of the 'Pint reached number 2 on the Boston local radio chart and charted or reached rotation at over 150 college/community radio stations across the U.S. and Canada. You can purchase the CD at CDBaby.com and download mp3s via iTunes and other digital music distributors.
Cheater Pint has played to a loyal and growing fan base in the 30th WBCN Rock 'n' Roll Rumble in 2008, the International Pop Overthrow in 2006 and 2007, the Rising Tide Concert Series and several Boston-area venues such as Great Scott, The Middle East Club, T.T. The Bear's Place, and The Abbey Lounge with the likes of The Cliks, Aberdeen City, The Charms, The Gravel Pit, Humanwine, The Figgs and Damone.
Cheater Pint called it quits as a band in 2008. But they still drink together on occasion.
