Cheap Trick

Cheap Trick is a rock band from Rockford, Illinois that rose to prominence in the late-1970s with a sound that blended together easily digestible pop stylings with a hook-laden rock instrumental approach. Initially founded in 1973, the group would languish on the sidelines of rock stardom for several years before releasing its debut album, Cheap Trick, in 1977. The LP as well as the massively popular live album, Cheap Trick at Budokan, helped propel the band to international acclaim and recognition.
