Formed in Rockford, Illinois in 1973, Cheap Trick rose to prominence with their infectious blend of power pop, pop rock, and glam influences. They stood out amidst the gritty sounds of punk with their catchy hooks, high-energy performances, and charismatic stage presence. Cheap Trick wasn’t just about fun, though. They were tight musicians, boasting a formidable rhythm section with drummer Bun E. Carlos and bassist Tom Petersson. Lead singer Robin Zander’s soaring vocals and guitarist Rick Nielsen’s signature four-neck “Monster” guitar became instantly recognizable trademarks.
While critical acclaim initially eluded them, Cheap Trick built a devoted fanbase through relentless touring and a string of radio-ready singles. Their 1978 live album, “Cheap Trick at Budokan,” recorded in Japan, became a cult classic, finally garnering them mainstream recognition and showcasing their electrifying live energy.
