Cheer Chen, from Luzhou, Taipei, graduated from Jingmei Girls’ High and obtained her bachelor’s degree in philosophy from National Chengchi University, Taiwan.
Primarily an indie recording artist, during her college years Cheer Chen performed on campus corners, under overpasses, and in underpasses, cafés, live houses, bookstores, and beaches. She is now a major live performer, having held many sold-out concerts at the largest and most prestigious venues. Her first album came out in 1998, and all her subsequent albums were listed among the top ten best albums of the year in Taiwan, including the latest one, Song of Transience in 2014. In the world tour for promoting this album, she performed 30 shows, which attracted more than 200,000 people to attend them. In 2016, Cheer Chen becomes the first Asian female singer/writer to have Gibson Signature acoustic guitar model.
Informed by her individual sense of culture, Cheer Chen’s works and ideas are unique among her contemporaries. She interprets many dreams of the current era through her music, words, and images. Many call her an artist and peaceful activist, rather than simply a singer. With zero reliance on social media such as Facebook, her works and her public image have still quietly and profoundly influenced the younger generation in Taiwan and other Chinese-speaking areas.
Cheer keeps a low profile and still manages to achieve critical acclaim. The media often call this the “Cheer Chen phenomenon.”
