"Fu Dog rocks!". Something you might hear anyone say who listens to this Chattanooga based rock band. Their swamp-trudging neo blues has a mind of its own and answers to no one. Fu Dog's righteous songs break the chains of stereotypical rock music because, let's face it, there is nothing stereotypical about this band. Fu Dog hails from Chattanooga, TN and has just released their first EP titled, "Imaginary Friends", spreading the good news of it's ground breaking blues rock. Songs like "Alabama Woman" make you stomp your feet and "Creepin' Tom" places you inside the b-movie, psychedelic world that is Fu Dog. This EP truly is a must hear and Fu Dog's live performances are a definite must see! Most rock groups begin, sound, and look the same these days. A few people meet in an overly cramped room, crank some amplifiers and get to it. This was defintiely not the case for founding members David Long and Charles Newby. The long time friends came together with nothing more than a few instruments, a cassette recorder and a love for the absurd. In the summer of 2011, David and Charles packed their bags and headed for Gulf Shores, Alabama, where they would write and record for "Imaginary Friends". By early November, with finished tracks in hand, the two moved back to Chattanooga to put a band together. After running into former bandmate Greg Pickett and Cameron Schmidt, picking up bass and drums, Fu Dog was formed. One heavy-hitting, foot-stomping southern rock and roll band that is surely to catch fire. Fu Dog's EP titled, "Imaginary Friends", is now available everywhere and you can listen to a few of their tracks on Reverbnation and Myspace. Be sure and drop a line on their facebook(www.facebook.com/fudog423), or other social media sites and stay tuned to what Fu Dog is up to. You do not want to miss anything these dogs throw out! Can you feel it? Can you feel the Fu?
