Hey! ***NEWS FLASH*** Dog on Fleas' latest greatest CD, Beautiful World, is almost here!!! It will be available early in November. 15 adventurous songs, many with global and astral themes. Guest appearances by Frances England, and Lorette Velvette (from the Kropotkins, Hellcats), and many more. Moogs and musical saws, piccolos and trombones. The beautiful and the bizarre. Stay tuned for more. Dog on Fleas welcomes you to our website. We humbly accept your fanatical approval. Please drop us a line and chat. Dog on Fleas is a unique beast with equal parts brains and muscle. They have been performing and recording intelligent, gutsy music for kids and adults since 1999, and have no plans to stop. They revel in diverse sounds and styles of music, and you can feel their excitement in every note. In performance, Dog on Fleas is a tornado, sucking up fans and whirling them around in a frenzy of fun. The whump of the bass and drums, the sass of the trombone, and the wow of the guitar and keyboards will convert you. Kids and critics all agree. If you have been to a Dog on Fleas show, you probably came up after the show and said “hi” because those Fleas look so friendly and nice. You probably danced with abandon, sang along, laughed and maybe cried (usually not the band’s fault), and you probably marveled at this quintet’s musicality. You heard the Fleas play their hits in fresh and exciting ways, and perhaps an unrehearsed cover song. Surprises are the norm for the Fleas. What’s the Dog on Fleas recipe? In a very large saucepan mix equal parts Cab Calloway and Woody Guthrie. Stir in a pinch of Spike Jones, NRBQ and Sun Ra. Top with a sauce of calypso, cajun, highlife, soul, and reggae. Stir with Ringo’s drum-stick and simmer. Brigitte Bardot will serve you from John Cage’s hat. Dog on Fleas have released 4 critically acclaimed CDs!
