In recent years the Philadelphia band has emerged as one of the preeminent rock bands around, attracting a rapidly growing fan base with their imaginative songwriting and a now legendary live show which the New York Times Magazine blog “6th Floor” recently described as “the best house party ever.”
The previous months have been a time of enthusiastic construction for Dr. Dog. First they built a new recording studio in an old mill and then set about assembling a supremely soulful new album in B–Room which delightfully mines and expands upon the surrounding landscape of Philadelphia soul. The tracks on B-Room were captured primarily live in-studio. As a result the rollicking groove and beloved musical interchange which has been delighting live audiences resonates throughout the disc. Spin recently raved about B-Room‘s “undeniably soulful streak.”
