Bio
DOG BUS is a band of two brothers; Jules (21) and Jakey (15). Proving that age doesn't matter, the two formed the band in 2006 and began recording music at home in Waterloo, Ontario. Both of the brothers are multi-talented instrumentalists and songwriters who create all their own beats. Lyrically, they are pranksters with attitude. Their sound is a blend of old school fat drum sounds, guitars, and dance banger synth riffs with vocal hooks that will be stuck in your head long after the songs are done playing. DOG BUS is attracting a diverse audience of music fans, most notably won over after witnessing one of their irresistible live performances. The shows are high energy romps featuring a massive, smoke blasting robot and backed by twins Phoenix and Mercedes (of Courage My Love) on drums and guitar. DOG BUS had their debut 'live' performance at the North by Northeast music festival in the summer of 2008, and the boys have been playing shows ever since, playing showcases for Canadian Music Week and Pop Montreal. They have played live with Dragonette, Sean Kingston, Down With Webster, Stereos, Marianas Trench, and Shad among others! DOG BUS have also found huge support with MuchMusic who hired them to lend their talent writing and performing "SNL Digital Short" type videos and songs for their popular show "MOD". They gained a huge (and growing) fan base across Canada after being featured on an episode of Much Music's hit show "Disband", spiking interest and garnering near perfect reviews from industry celebs such as Greg Nori (Hedley, Sum 41), Mark Spicoluk (YTV's The Next Star, Lights) and Chase Parsons (Chris Smith Management; Nelly Furtado) with their infectious rhymes and energetic live skills. DOG BUS is not only a diverse music group, but also a brand, branching out into all areas of entertainment. Jules and Jakey have created their own line of clothing, production team, DJ team & have even had their own radio show. They've gained hundreds of thousands of views online with their fun, weird and creative videos. A new track, "Cherry Lipstick" has been featured on hit show "Degrassi" & recently released single "Michelle Kwan (Popsicle)" featuring youtube superstar and Diplo signee RIFF RaFF has been blowing up online.
DOG BUS is currently finishing a new album featuring self-produced tracks and guest producers James Robertson (Down With Webster) and Tino Zolfo (Carly Rae Jepsen) to be released soon, and sure to be a hit!
