Wetdog

Wetdog, a British indie pop trio whose gritty, puckish tunes give a nod to Lung Leg, Huggy Bear, and the Raincoats, formed in the spring of 2007 around the talents of guitarist Rivka Gillieron (formerly of Reverend Pike & the Ghosts), drummer Sarah Datblygu (also of the Ghosts), and bassist Billy Easter. Their debut long-player, Enterprise Reversal, came out on Angular Records one year later. Wetdog's sophomore effort, Frauhaus, was released in 2009, on the U.S.-based label Captured Tracks. The next year found Wetdog embarking on their first U.S. tour, gigging with like-minded indie pop acts the Vivian Girls and Blank Dogs.
