Artful Dodger (3)

Artful Dodger (formed in 1973 in Fairfax, Virginia) are an American power pop rock band, noted for their tight rock compositions, deft lyricism, vocal harmonies, and live shows. The group was heavily influenced by The Beatles, Faces, and The Rolling Stones and drew frequent comparisons to The Raspberries. Artful Dodger's studio releases received high critical praise, but the band was unable to penetrate the charts due to factors including lack of record company support as the emergence of punk rock and new wave garnered increased attention and marketing dollars
