Inspired by retro influences, Dr. Dog is comprised of bassist Toby Leaman, guitarist Scott McMicken, guitarist Frank McElroy, drummer Eric Slick, multi-instrumentalist Demitri Manos and keyboardist Zach Miller. The Philadelphia-based group made a career-turning move when one of their CDs was given to Grammy-nominated rockers My Morning Jacket. Continuing to make a presence throughout the indie scene and earning headlining acts, Dr. Dog released their most recent album, Be the Void, in February of this year.
