Dr. Dog


We have been swamped with pretty little things (Amy Winehouse, Duffy, Gabriella Cilmi) all taking us back a couple of decades. In doing so they have been seen as innovative and new. Dr. Dog trumps all those ladies with not only going back a few decades, they're hitting it back a century. The album feels like a modern day collection of spirituals. Through the sweet scratchy vocals of lead singer, Scott McMicken, each phrase, each word becomes a piece of ear candy allowing the listener to immerse themselves in a feeling, the spirit that is Dr. Dog. These boys have being doing their thing for a while now, check out their website (http://www.drdogmusic.com) for their brilliant back catalogue. All the practise Dr. Dog has had has paid off. The image is complete and has all the right elements to ensure unlimited success. Make sure to check Dr. Dog live as they will be in a city near you very soon.

Hot Track(s): The Breeze, The Old Days

Kind of Like: Bob Dylan sings a couple of spirituals with his buddies The Beatles and Joe Cocker.

PREDICTION:
A top 20 hit in the U.K. and an album that sees impressive reviews and sales across North America.
