Careers
The band's beginning revolves around the satellite facility of Paul Green School of Rock in Downingtown, PA, where Rothstein and Del Rosario are also taught bass and guitar respectively. Franchise by Rothstein's parents, the school serves as a center for recording, practice, and performances.
The group launched their third album, Like Wind Blows Fire in May 2012, playing Apple Store in Philadelphia for official release. Reviewing the album, Jedd Beaudoin said, "Cheers Elephant should be the subject of talks on radio and coffee shops by the end of the decade." The band has done many national tours and completed 12 shows at the South by Southwest music festival.
The band's music has been described as "Chew, Spit, Rock and Roll". Krzywicki claimed the band's composition style took the form of influences such as The Beatles, Kinks and Beach Boys combined with "Philadelphia type sound streets."
The band's main songwriter, Derek Krzywicki, left the group in November 2014, but the band continued afterwards as a trio.
The band released three albums between 2008 and 2012 and in 2017 worked on their fourth. The album, "Stonemasters", was released on November 24, 2017 and contains a mix of new material and a previously written track record in band life.
