Dr. Dog
by Donny Kutzbach
Philadelphia’s Dr. Dog is one of those bands that’s been heard of more than actually heard. The buzz in the music blogosphere has put their name on the minds of music-savvy netizens, and reviews of their new LP We All Belong (Park The Van) have been glowing (The Village Voice compared their sparkling, hooky psych rock to the Beatles, Beach Boys and The Band). They’re the cool band that all the other cool bands want to have open for them, so Dr. Dog can boast tours with My Morning Jacket, The Raconteurs, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, and The Strokes. When not sharing stages with big rock and roll stars, they’re hitting every US city they can on their own headline dates. Dr. Dog finally puts Buffalo on the list when they play Mohawk Place on Thursday (May 3) with support from tourmates The Teeth and Hoots & Hellmouth
