Analog Dog makes genre fluid music in San Francisco. Hailing from all corners of the country, the band came together in and around the hallowed musical breeding grounds of Golden Gate Park. With each member drawing on diverse inspirations and musical backgrounds, from self-taught to classically trained, they unite over a common love for genre-bending composition and improvisation. Honoring the vibrations of the psychedelic revolution of the 1960s, digging into the disco groves from the dance revolution of the 1970s, and simultaneously embracing modern indie pop soundscapes, Analog Dog is its own thing.
