Lineup
Fat Dog are one of London’s most exciting new bands, conjuring the sort of frenzied and wild live shows not seen in the capital for years. Their debut album WOOF. is a brilliant and mind-bending blend of electro-punk, rock’n’roll snarling, techno soundscapes, industrial-pop and rave euphoria, music for letting go to or, in the words of frontman Joe Love, “screaming-into-a-pillow music”.

Seen them twice recently, 1st at the Paradiso in Amsterdam where the old church was literally moving with the frenzy of the crowd and then at Wide Awake Festival in Brixton when frontman Joe Love spent most of the time in the middle of the crowd whipping them up. Incredible atmosphere and entertainment at both gigs.
Simply glorious. Haven't seen a crowd go so wild for years and totally joyous. Best live band in ages.
