I would imagine or acoustic like this.
Speaker 20: We do a little duet thing called dog two dog sometimes,
oh you do. Yeah, so this is like a little
taste of dog two dogs.
Speaker 16: Oh, very good, very good? And so how often how
often do you play where it is just the two
of you?
Speaker 15: Is that once in a while or yeah, okay, yeah,
once in a while.
Speaker 19: Yeah, it's like a little sporadic. We haven't done it
in a while.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 20: Yeah. I'm playing at Feathered Friend Up and Conquered pretty
soon next month, April twenty second, I believe, yeah, And
I'd asked you to join me, but I don't know.
Speaker 19: I look at my calendar.
Speaker 21: But I did have Meg come and play some songs
like the two that we're gonna do today and two
of her originals at.
Speaker 19: One of my last gigs. So that was cool. So
any chance we can we have each other in on
each other's gigs?
Speaker 16: Oh okay, so it sounds so you both do a
lot of solo shows too.
Speaker 20: She does more than me. Oh okay, okay, that's kind
of her like main gig that she's doing right now.
Speaker 19: Yeah, trying to make it work.
Speaker 20: Oh wow, I teach middle school. That's my main gig.
Speaker 16: Oh wow, okay okay. And then so how often does
Dog a Dog play out live?
Speaker 19: We try to do like two or three among the month.
Speaker 20: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we've tried to get more like choosy
with what we do so we can so we can
like not run ourselves ragged, but kind of right pick
the best shows. We just had a big fundraiser for
Planned Parenthood last Friday at the Jewel was called Voices Excellent.
Speaker 16: Yeah.
Speaker 20: We raised like over three thousand dollars for Planned Parenthood,
So it was like it was a it was a
big hit. Yeah, it was a great, great time. So
we'd like to just do like stuff like that, like
nice chosen things that you know.
Speaker 16: Yeah, well you're sad at Spelfyfest was great, Like I said,
Jenny and I were really impressed. And so now who
else is in the band? When you've got the full band,
you've got it's a four piece right.
Speaker 15: When you play live?

Speaker 20: Yeah, we got Brad to Palma. He's also in Cosmic Blossoms.
Speaker 16: Oh right, I was gonna say right, his name came
up earlier.
Speaker 20: Yeah, yes, we snagged him. We got Chris Drew on
bass and then Santino Dumonti on drums.
Speaker 16: Okay, yeah, okay, And how long has dogg a dog
been around?
Speaker 15: How long is that?
Speaker 19: I was coming up on two years?
Speaker 16: Okay, so so relatively new.
Speaker 15: Yeah.
Speaker 20: I saw Sarah singing with another band. She was sitting
in and I was like, she needs to be in
this band. Like yeah, so we snagged her, Like what
what was it?
Speaker 22: Like?
Speaker 19: I think by October we were you.
Speaker 21: We met April twenty twenty three, and I had seen
you on I hadn't seen you live, I'd seen you
on Instagram and I was blown away by your band
at the time. And so when you came up to
me at my band's gig, I'm like, oh, she knows me.
Speaker 19: This is cool.
Speaker 20: Yeah, now we're working together.
Speaker 16: Oh very cool, very cool. Well do you want I'm
dying to hear you play you want to play something

Speaker 22: This side thing, this side thing.
Speaker 15: Mm hmmm, that is really good. That is really good.
Dog eate Dog here with us alive in studio.
Speaker 16: We have Meg and Sarah here on this Saturday morning,
and I feel like the secret weapon is the two
of you singing together, you know what I mean, Like,
I mean, it's.
Speaker 20: Just that's most like you know, I feel like once
we start doing that, we're like, okay, like this is
something we need to like harness and like combined efforts.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 15: Yeah, was that?
Speaker 16: I mean, was it like that from the beginning of
the two of you working, Like did that just come immediately?
Speaker 18: Like that it kind of grew.
Speaker 20: I feel like I was always kind of like, I
don't know if you ever heard of like lead singeritis,
like yeah, people, yeah, And I always had a hard
time with that. And when Sarah joined the band, it
was kind of this thing. It was like, Okay, are
we gonna switch off? Or like what are we gonna do?
Like I knew I like wanted, you know, another female,
and I knew it like for a while and I
and I just I was like, oh, she's perfect. Yeah,
and it just you know, she really really really helped me.
That's kind of a big strength of hers is just
like harmonies, yeah, and you know, singing it like just
finding a way to like mesh with other people. And
so that was just like such a huge help in
my like like bringing my musicianship up a notch.
Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, because that was my And I said that
to Jenny too that night that I I saw you
play it at Spelfy Fest. It's like when they sing together,
it's just it's incredible, you know, it's really powerful. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's a great it's.
Speaker 19: A great experience.
Speaker 21: And I think one of my first actually, I think
the first gig I played with you guys.
Speaker 19: We were learning B fifty two songs. Yeah, I think
it was my idea. I don't want to take credit,
but I love the B fifty two's.
Speaker 21: But we had to get ready for some Halloween thing
where the band's in the in the lineup had to
like do songs from the band.
Speaker 19: Yeah, and we chose to be picked that because of.
Speaker 16: That, the choice arts that we needed for it.
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 19: That really pushed us to lock in.
Speaker 21: Yeah, and I don't have a lot of I mean,
I do have experience sing with other people, but not
in this setting and with someone who's as much of
a powerhouse as Meg, so it's pretty dope.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 15: Yeah, no, that's awesome.
Speaker 20: We did, like what we did rock lobster.
Speaker 19: My top played songs of like twenty Yeah.
Speaker 20: She was wearing a blonde wig like sliding down her
head the whole.
Speaker 19: I just got to get rid of it to the crib.
Speaker 15: That's awesome. That's awesome.
Speaker 16: Now how many how many original songs does dogg a
Dog have at this point?
Speaker 13: Oh?
Speaker 8: Like, h.
Speaker 15: I think I don't think you played any covers. It's
spelfy Fest, right or did you remember?
Speaker 19: We must? We probably did a few. Remember what what
covers we were doing.
Speaker 20: We were at a transitionary period that at that time too,
because our guitar player had our guitar player had moved
like he was moving on to other things, so we
were looking for a lead guitar player. That's when Brad
came up, like pretty much for the first time. Oh
really yeah, and we were like, oh man, this works.
So that's how we like we snagged Brad.
Speaker 16: Oh okay, pretty lucky.
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 20: I think probably around like fifty probably like fifteen, like
I don't know, like like ten.
Speaker 19: Definitely albums worth.
Speaker 20: Yeah, we like we're always working on different stuff. It's
mostly the songwriting is mostly me and Sarah, yeah, yeah,
and collaborating and with us, and then we kind of
like bring our songs to the band and they kind
of do their thing with it, which is pretty cool.
Speaker 19: You guys definitely have I think most of the catalog
still existed before I joined.
Speaker 20: Yeah, okay, yeah, it's a lot of Some of this
stuff is like stuff because I we were in a
band called out of Water before dog It dog Me
Chris and Santino, and I was just a singer. I
didn't really play guitar yet much. So we kind of
just threw a couple of songs together because out of
Water had fallen apart, and then we were like, oh,
this kind of works, and so we started doing that.
So now we're kind of work on expanding our catalog
and in you know, bringing more of Sarah's songs in
and yeah, stuff like that.
Speaker 15: Yeah where are you from? Where is the band from?
Speaker 20: We practice in Salem, New Hampshire, Okay, yeah, Chris's house.
Speaker 19: But you know, and I live like six minutes away
in Salem as well, Okay.
Speaker 20: Yeah, and I'm right in the area. I'm in Atkinson,
New Hampshire, right, and yeah, so we're all like kind
of close.
Speaker 16: To that area.
Speaker 15: Yeah. Yeah, that's good. That's good.
Speaker 16: Are there other bands in the you know, because it
happens organically. Are there other bands that you kind of
team up with for shows? Is there anybody that you
you play a lot of shows with.
Speaker 20: Yeah, I mean there are so many really cool bands
in the scene.
Speaker 22: Like, oh, what was that?
Speaker 20: What's that the band we put it with, The Worth
in Fools Agenda Agenda Okay wait, yeah, yeah we have
you know, uh, we have a show planned with them
in April in Salem, mass Yeah, that's right, And we
kind of team up with them because that's a female

Speaker 20: Yeah, she's a really well known musician in the scene

done so much for us, Like she's just one of
those people that like sees someone and wants to help
like elevate them and you know, like you know, get
them to where they want to be. She's super helpful.
Speaker 15: Cool, cool, I don't.

played that in the first hour. Yeah that's great.
Speaker 19: Yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker 15: Yeah, really good, really good.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 21: I guess that would be a better or no, no,
better time than now to mention that Cosmic Blossom and
Dog a Dog will be playing at Strange Creek in May,

Speaker 18: I am not reply to.
Speaker 15: Another great song, great great job.
Speaker 16: Doggie Dogg is here with us in studio, sounding absolutely
fantastic we have of course Megan and Sarah with us here. Hey,
where does the name come from? By the way, where
does the name dogge dog come from?
Speaker 20: Honestly, like, I don't know. We were just like really
trying to find a name, and I I heard the
term like dog eat dog world, and I just like
felt like, I don't know, it was like a funny thing.
And then like the logo I thought was cool because
the dog with the eight and the dog and yeah,
and the we had our friend, my friend Mallory Vass
designed like a little logo when we were talking about
it with like the eight ball in the middle, and
I was like, oh, this is cool. Yeah. So it's
like it's just kind of like an ode to, uh,
how crappy the world can be sometimes, but how we
can fight it with music and stuff.
Speaker 15: I like that.
Speaker 3: I like that.
Speaker 16: I'm curious to know too, how how each of you
learned to sing, if you're if you had formal training
or if you're self taught or whatever, because you both
have such great voices. And again, you know, like I said,
I feel like your secret weapon is how how well
they work together, but also too individually. You both sing
just really really well. I'm jealous. I went through like
three different vocal teachers and I still can't sing. But
so I'm really curious how you both learned to sing.
I want to go first there.
Speaker 21: Sure, well, I grew up watching my mother sing in church,
so that was a really good start, and she was.
Speaker 19: A canter the family mass downstairs.
Speaker 21: And then I joined the teen choir when I got
a bit older, and then when I got sick of that.
I mean, choir is beautiful, but I would join a
women's choir again, honestly. But I did some like musical
theater here and there. I'm not a theater geek, but
I did some every now and then, and so most
of my life. I guess you could say I've been singing,
but the lessons were a little on and off. Yeah,
it's just something I've always loved to do. Yeah, I
don't sing fancy schmancy like Whitney Houston or.
Speaker 27: I beg to differ.
Speaker 19: I mean, when the mood strikes and get enough drinks
in me. But you know, it's I don't know, I
just I love it. It's what I've been doing my
whole life. You're you're a theater geek. I'm really not,
though I haven't even seen Wicked yet.
Speaker 16: No, I'm it's cool though that you started out, you know,
having a mom who sang yeah. You know that that
probably gave you a good push right in that direction.
Speaker 19: Really did. She's great she because she would sing low
and then she'd sing hi.
Speaker 21: And it's funny. Her name is Jonie as well. And
I've really been into Joni Mitchell recent oh really yeah.
Speaker 19: The past couple of years. More, I'm like, why have
I not listened to her more? I feel like the
parts of her voice that she would use are parts
that I like to use and don't want to be shy.
I don't want to shy away. I don't feel like.
Speaker 20: I have to. I don't know, like sing any sort
of thing.
Speaker 21: Singing with your head voice is such a beautiful sound
that I feel maybe we don't hear enough on popular
radio as often, if.
Speaker 19: That makes sense.
Speaker 21: And when I just I listened through on the Blue
album and you Meg, you love that album too, You're
a Joni fan and she just uses her voice as
an instrument, and.
Speaker 16: I think it's yeah, there's really no.
Speaker 19: There's no limits.
Speaker 15: Is your mom supportive? Like, does she come see you
live and everything.
Speaker 21: She hasn't been to the rock shows, and I get it,
you know, not everybody, not everybody's parents are into that.
Speaker 19: But she will come to my solo gigs, my duo gigs.
Speaker 21: And yeah, she came to one last month and she's
really She saw us do the songs that we just
did and she seemed really really impressed. Like, oh, like
not only she's singing, but she's writing and working with
this other musician who's really passionate.
Speaker 20: Yeah, your dad was like super super excited about it.
Her dad's also a musician. Oh okay, piano player.
Speaker 15: Oh no kidding.
Speaker 19: Jazz at Berkeley grad.
Speaker 21: Oh came from New Zealand in nineteen eighty and oh wow,
he went there and then he taught there. He hasn't
taught there since I was a little kid. But he
and my mom met at a at a restaurant. My
mom was singing and she was a singing waitress and
my dad was called Lonesome Joe, that's.
Speaker 19: Not his real name. He played the piano and they
found each other that way, and it's pretty cool.
Speaker 16: Yeah, music is just in my family.
Speaker 15: That's awesome. Did he teach you how to play piano
or he will.
Speaker 19: Teach me some things. But I think it's just he
could teach me a lot more. But I think it's
just that he's my dad, where sometimes I want to
do everything myself.
Speaker 15: Yeah.
Speaker 16: Yeah, and now I get that I'm still a kid at.
Speaker 21: Heart, but he'll like get me, get the ball rolling
for me if I want to learn like a bread
song or an Elton John song.
Speaker 16: Oh, very cool, very cool, And how about how about you?
Speaker 15: Meg?
Speaker 20: I'm like, I'm not too much formally trained. I think
like my sister was a big inspiration to me. She
was always in theater and stuff. Her name's Kelsey Collins.
She I don't know. Her and her husband are local musicians,
Malcolm Homes. He's on. They're good friends with Robosavado. Oh okay, yeah,
they do his show sometimes.
Speaker 15: Oh okay.
Speaker 20: But she is an amazing singer and I I just
grew up and she was always like just the music one,
and we would go see her theater shows and she
played piano, and I just always looked up to her
so much. Yeah, but it was more like singing to
myself a lot. And then I got I went to
high school with Chris Drew our bass player and our
band now and we weren't too close. But when I
was like twenty, i'd like to say he they had
a band called out of Water and he was I
had messaged him about it and was like, oh, it's
so cool, Like you're in a band. I want to
come check you guys out. I want to be in
a band someday.
Speaker 27: I love to sing.
Speaker 20: And he was like, oh, like our singer actually just quit,
so like, do you want to come try out? So
I had never really formally sang or I never even
sang into a microphone or anything. Okay, they gave me
a chance, and I I've definitely been working on like
my skills since, but just kind of just I love
doing it. I love the expressive aspect of it, just
like writing your own words and then being able to
express them in the way that you want.
Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, awesome, awesome. No, And then the two of you,
like I said, the two of you singing together is fantastic.
And where was the single that we played.
Speaker 15: When we open up?
Speaker 12: So what was it?
Speaker 16: Oh?
Speaker 15: Final Warning? Where was that recorded?
Speaker 23: Oh?
Speaker 19: We did that on our own, did you?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 15: That was really good. It's it's cool that you know.
Speaker 16: We live in an era where there's so many different
options as far as recording, you know, and you can
do You can do something on your own and make
it sound like it was done a million dollar studio.
Speaker 20: Yeah. Yeah, we're hoping to get with with Pete soon too.
Gary had mentioned him. Yes, he's just become like someone
that a lot of people in the music scene use.
He's super professional and just like, really.
Speaker 15: What's his last name?

Speaker 16: It's like because I feel like I know who you're
talking about, but I'm not sure.

halfway there for us. He's done a lot of the
Fox and Flamingos stuff, percussive maintenance stuff.

just promote this, the show that we're doing with Terminus. Oh, yes,

underground New Hampshire music scene type of like you call
them like a group or like a club or something.
