Yep Roc Records & The Golden Dogs

Yep Roc Records has been keeping rather busy lately. Kaleidoscopic country rockers The Gourds will jettison their latest entitled Noble Creatures on July 10th. The band features the songwriting skills of Kevin Russell and Jimmy Smith.

Nick Lowe and John Doe (X) will drop new discs in June, while Los Straitjackets continue to tour in support of Rock En Espanol, Vol. 1.

But the band that has me most intrigued is from the Great White North; Toronto to be exact. The Golden Dogs (pictured above) have been honing their chops for almost ten years. The band was first conceptualized in 1998 by future husband and wife , Dave Azzolino and Jessica Grassia. after years of shuffling band members, the Golden Dogs have finally settled and reaping the rewards. The band recently inked a U.S. deal with Yep Roc, where they will release Big Eye Little Eye on August 21st. If this matches their live shows, look out.
