The Smithereens
Mention the Smithereens to anyone familiar with late '80s/early '90s Power Pop, and they'll probably start humming "A Girl Like You," "Blood and Roses," or "House That We Used to Live In," three perfect pop tunes that are ample evidence of this New Jersey quartet's influence and songwriting ability. Pat Dinizio and company haven't gone away in the interim since those songs rode high on the charts, either touring incessantly and/or recording new material regularly.
