Pilot Dogs
Gritting their teeth and pushing the limits of the alt-country label they've been branded with. Pilot Dogs returns with one of their strongest line-ups to date. In the tradition of the Bottle Rockets and The Drive By Truckers and influenced equally by Son Volt and Gov't Mule as well as The Replacements, AC/DC and Bad Company.
The shows feature an all new set of originals and covers. The songs sound like music you used to listen to in high school, but can be tucked next to the current music scene. The thread is simply rock-n-roll!
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Formed by vocalist John Joseph and inspired by the concept of what would Son Volt sound like if Stevie Ray Vaughn or Warren Haynes was in the band?
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
we play mostly around the Central Ohio area, venturing out of state once in while.
