EXCLUSIVE: Dr. Dog Signs to Anti-, Set to Record with Rob Schnapf


They grow up so fast! We are proud to exclusively announce that our little Dr. Dog has just signed to Anti- Records. They leave tiny Park The Van, where they released their last three records, including 2008's excellent Fate, which saw them reap huge national exposure in the form of late night appearances (Conan, Fallon) and spreads in major magazines (Rolling Stone, Spin.) Keyboardist Zach Miller also reveals that the band will record its sixth studio album with uber-producer Rob Schnapf (Beck, Foo Fighters, Elliott Smith) beginning in August. Congratulations to Philly's finest!

In the meantime, we'll have an in-depth interview with Miller next week. In the meantime, if you haven't yet, now would be a good time to jump on the Dr. Dog bandwagon.

Oh, is John Mayer signed to Anti now? Cool, maybe they can tour with him. Or maybe someone like Tom Waits orrr Neko Case, orr all of the other amazing artists anti has.

My favorite band in the world. I hope they put on a show to say goodbye to PTV and give all the proceeds to them. I also hope they didn't sign away creative control on things like who they tour with...what singles they release..blah blah
