"The more I see of men the more I like dogs." --Madame de Stael 1766-1817 French social leader.
"a country indie rock sound to them with a little bluegrass twang"
-Long Beach Underground
"The Satellite Dogs play a brand of folk punk, Green on
Red style alt rock."
- Mike Martt
Satellite Dogs based out of the South Bay/Los Angeles area. With eclectic tunes stemming from folk, punk, alt .country, psychedelic rock, coming from both singer/songwriters Mike Salas & Mike DeBe, always melodic but never sounding like just one of these genres.The just released CD titled "Showdown at Big Dalton" is a result of exactly that, a showdown between the band and Big Dalton studio owner/producer Mike Halby (Hound Dog/David Hidalgo, Canned Heat, John Mayall’s Blues Breakers) and engineer Ken Raines (sessions with Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett) which left all parties laying in the dust, waking up wondering what happened....the result - A great F$cking Record!
Recorded mostly live in the studio, no Pro Tools and nare any effects in just a few days. Yeah, these guys taught us the old school way of recording the band live all in one room using old tube amps and vintage mics going direct to 2" tape through real plate reverb and an old Amek/Neve board. Mastered by Evren Göknar (Iggy Pop, Grand Funk Railroad, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Duran Duran, Throwing Muses) at Capitol Studios. Several songs from the album have been chosen for the indie film soundtrack "The Waiters"
Check out the film "The Waiters" your beloved Satellite Dogs have several songs on the soundtrack and it’s available hereThe Waiters @Netflix
