"Cheer Up Baby" landed in March 2021 as the second single from It Won't Always Be Like This, the debut album by Irish indie rockers Inhaler, and it arrived the same week the album itself was announced. The band wrote it together and Antony Genn produced it, and it's a big, feel-good pop-rock anthem with its sleeves rolled up; it sits fourth on the record.
Getting there took a while. The band had been together since 2012, when they were still pupils at St Andrew's College in Dublin, put out their own music from 2017 and signed to Polydor in 2019. Plans to record the album in early 2020 were put on hold when COVID-19 hit. They teased the song a week ahead with a sped-up shot of a billboard, and in July 2021 took it to The Late Late Show with James Corden.
