Artist description Time for a change? At least that's the feeling among the High Grass Dogs. The High Grass Dogs are a new band coming out of the windy city, Chicago. Comprised of six members, the band is on a mission to bring back the elements that made music so important to them. Not a simple task in today's musical climate. What this group brings to the table is a sound rooted in the blues and soul of vintage rock'n'roll, with an emphasis on strong songwriting. Another element H.G.D. adds to the mix is the ability to stretch out and improvise. The combination of these two elements allows for a constantly original and exciting live musical experience. Does H.G.D. have the goods? We think so.

Music Style Rock with a blues backbone

Musical Influences Rolling Stones, Beatles, Humble Pie
